This just means that opposite sides in a shape (sides that 'look' at each other) are of equal lengths.
Only if it is a trapezoid (US usage) with one set of parallel sides, or a parallelogram with both sets of opposite sides parallel. The term quadrilateral only means that the shape has 4 sides.
A parallelogram has opposite sides equal and parallel. A rectangle means the angles are all 90o as well as opposite sides being equal and parallel A rhombus means all sides are equal in length as well as opposite sides being parallel A parallelogram with angles of 90o (also a rectangle) and all sides equal (also a rhombus) is a square.
They are the sides facing each other at opposite sides.

The opposite of ipsilateral is contralateral, which refers to structures or functions on opposite sides of the body or brain.

A parallelogram has opposite sides and angles congruent which means of equal measure.

Opposite sides are parallel.Opposite sides are congruent.Opposite angles are congruent.
The opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel
All sides of a quadrilateral are consecutive, by definition.Not really. In the quadrilateral ABCD the sides AB and CD are opposite, but not consecutive. What is true for a quadrilateral is that any pair of sides that is opposite is not consecutive, and any pair that is not opposite is consecutive.The question asks what shape quadrilateral has 2 consecutive sides. If the question means "2 and only 2" consecutive sides the answer is that no such shape exists. If it means at least 2 consecutive sides then any quadrilateral fits the bill.If, as I suspect, the questioner meant 2 parallel sides, the answer is a trapezium.
