A quadrilateral is any figure with 4 sides. ("quad" = 4, "latus" = side). It doesn't have to have any parallel lines. If it happens to have two sides that are parallel, then it's a trapezoid. If it happens to have two pairs of parallel sides, then it's a parallelogram.

Common parallelograms are rectangles, squares, and kites.

How many parallel lines does a irregular quadrilateral have?

An irregular quadrilateral can have zero, one, or two pairs of parallel lines, but typically it has no parallel lines. By definition, an irregular quadrilateral does not have equal sides or angles, which means it does not conform to the properties of specific types of quadrilaterals like rectangles or parallelograms that have parallel sides. Thus, the most common scenario for an irregular quadrilateral is having no parallel lines at all.
