Strictly speaking you cannot have one parallel side - you must have one pair.

Any irregular polygon with four or more sides can have a pair of parallel sides. Most have no specific names - the only one that does is a trapezium.

A trapezoid (or trapezium in some regions) has one set of parallel sides and one set of perpendicular sides. Specifically, a right trapezoid features one pair of parallel sides and the non-parallel sides that are perpendicular to one of the parallel sides. This shape allows for various applications in geometry and design.

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.
