There are infinitely many possible shapes. For example an octagon with sides [sequentially] numbered 1 and 5 that are equal.

Yes the above is true, but specifically a shape with twopairs of congruent, opposite sides is called a parallelogram.

What is a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of congruent adjacent sides congruent and no congruent opposite sides?

Trapezoid.


What shape has 2 pairs of congruent sides with those sides being non-adjacent and the angles are not all congruent?

This is a parallelogram. The first requirement is 2 pairs of congruent sides where the congruent sides are not adjacent. This is like a rectangle (excluding a square) that has two pairs of congruent sides where the congruent sides are not adjacent. But the angles are not all congruent (as set in the question) which pushes the shape into the "next less regular" shape, the parallelogram. The angles will not all be congruent, but it will have 2 pairs of congruent angles. There is no way to avoid the 2 pairs of congruent angles because of the requirement that the shape must have 2 pairs of congruent sides (the first requirement).

What is one way to prove that a quadrilateral is a parallegram?

* both pairs of opposite sides are parallel * both pairs of opposite sides are congruent * both pairs of opposite angles are congruent * one pair of opposite sides are parallel and congruent * both diagonals bisect each other * all consecutive angle pairs are supplementary


If one side of a quadrilateral is congruent to its opposite side then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram?

No, it doesn't have to be. A quadrilateral can definitely be a parallelogram only if: - Both pairs of opposite sides are parallel. - Both pairs of opposite sides are congruent. - One pair of opposite sides are both congruent and parallel. - Both pairs of opposite angles are congruent. - The diagonals bisect each other.
