A trapezoid has 4 sides, 2 acute and 2 obtuse angles, and only one pair of parallel sides
There is no generic name. Any polygon with 4 or more sides can have 2 parallel sides. There are also non-polygonal shapes that can have parallel sides: for example, a circle that is stretched out into a cigar shape can have two parallel sides.
a pentagon has 5 sides total, and no parallel sides. A hexagon has 6 sides, so it has 3 parallel sides. any shape with an odd number of equal sides has 0 parallel sides, no matter how many sides it has. every shape with an even number of equal sides will have the # of sides divided by 2 (#/2) of parallel sides.
The shape would not be a common shape. A ladder has parallel rungs.
A shape with two pairs of parallel sides is ........ a parallelogram!
A trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides
If the shape (a quadrilateral) has only 2 parallel sides, it is a trapezoid (UK trapezium).A shape with four sides and two sets of parallel sides is a parallelogram (rectangle, square, rhomboid, rhombus) because these figures have four sides and two sets of parallel sides.
Only one quadrilateral has only two parallel sides: the trapezium.
An equilateral hexagon would work. It has more than 2 pairs of parallel sides though. There is no shape with only 2 pairs of parallel sides besides a parallelogram.
For a shape to have parallel sides it needs at least 4 sides
Any shape that is not a triangle may have 2 parallel sides, although regular polygons only have parallel sides when the number of sides is even. For a quadrilateral, a trapezoid(UK trapezium) has 1 set of parallel sides and a parallelogram (either a rhombus, rectangle, or square) has 2 sets of parallel sides.
No shape has only 1 parallel side. A trapezoid is a 4-sided shape, or quadrilateral, with only 2 parallel sides; it does not necessarily have to have 2 right angles. (In the UK a trapezoid is called a trapezium.) In North America, a trapezium is a quadrilateral with 0 (no) parallel sides.
An isosceles trapezoid would seem to fit the given description.
If it only has 2 parallel sides, then it is a trapezoid (called a trapezium outside of North America).If it has 2 pairs of parallel sides, then it is a parallelogram.
Atrapezoidhas four sides and only two of the four sides are parallel. A square,parallelogram, and kite have four sides and have multiple pairs of parallel sides.
A trapezoid is a shape that has 4 sides and 2 parallel sides. The sides that are parallel are called the bases.
That would be a trapezoid.
