How do you make a parallelogram out of trapezoids?

Line up the two trapeziums side by side with their parallel sides top and bottom, and with a pair of corresponding sides of the trapeziums facing one another. Flip one of them top to bottom and bring the two trapeziums together. They will form a parallelogram.Line up the two trapeziums side by side with their parallel sides top and bottom, and with a pair of corresponding sides of the trapeziums facing one another.

What quadrilaterals do not have two pairs of opposite sides that are parallel?

Any that are not a parallelogram (rhombus, rectangle, square). These would include all irregular quadrilaterals as well as trapezoids (trapeziums) which have only one set of parallel sides.
