How is a trapezoid different from other shapes?
A trapezoid is a 4 sided quadrilateral that has only one pair of opposite parallel sides of different lengths.
Do shapes with odd numbers always have no parallel sides?
No, shapes with odd numbers of sides do not always lack parallel sides. For example, a trapezoid is a four-sided shape (even number of sides) that has one pair of parallel sides, while an irregular pentagon (five sides) can have no parallel sides at all. The presence of parallel sides depends on the specific properties and measurements of the shape, not solely on whether the number of sides is odd or even.
What shapes have more that one pair of parallel sides?
A square
What names of shapes with one pair of parallel sides?
rhombus
What 2D shape has a pair of parallel sides?
Any polygon with four or more sides can have a pair of parallel sides. It is also possible to to have non-polygonal shapes - eg a cigar-shape - that has parallel sides.
What shapes describe a trapazoid?
It is a closed four-sided shape with one pair of parallel sides.
What shape have one pair of parallel sides?
The name of the four-sided shape that has only one pair of parallel sides is known as a trapezoid. The other two sides are not parallel to each other. There are many other shapes with more than four sides that have one pair of parallel sides but these typically don't have special names. So assuming the question is only referring to four-sided figures, the answer is a trapezoid.
Which shape is a four sided figure with only one pair of parallel sides?
A trapezoid is a four-sided figure (or "quadrilateral") with only one pair of parallel sides.

What is a four-sided polygon with one pair of parallel sides and the opposite sides are congruent?
A four-sided shape is a quadrilateral. With only one pair of parallel sides, it would be called a trapezoid (UK trapezium).
What geometric shapes have one pair of parallel sides?
trapezoids
What shapes have more that one pair of parallel sides?
A square
What names of shapes with one pair of parallel sides?
rhombus
What shapes have exactly two pair of parallel sides?
rectangular
What is a four- sided figure with 1 pair of parallel sides?
A trapezoid.
Explain why a square can never be a trapezoid?
A trapezoid is a four-sided figure with only one pair of parallel sides. A square will always have two pairs of parallel sides.
