What shapes have opposite sides that are equal and parallel?
cuboid
Are all sided shapes parallelograms?
No. Parallelograms have only 4 sides with 2 sets of parallel sides: they include squares, rectangles, and rhombuses (rhombi, diamond shapes). Because opposite angles are equal, each pair of parallel sides is equal in length. (For squares and "equilateral rhombi" all four sides are equal in length.)
What do you call a shape with two parallel sides that are not necessarily equal?
There are infinitely many such shapes. A polygon with 4 or more sides can have two sides that are parallel and they need not be the same length.
How many shapes have parallel lines?
Infinitely many. Every regular polygon with 2n sides has n pairs of parallel sides. Then there are irregular polygons which can have parallel sides. And there are also irregular shapes which have parallel sides.
What is a quadrilateral a pair of parallel and a pair of equal sides?
A quadrilateral has four sides that may or may not be equal or parallel If two sides are parallel and the other sides equal but not parallel it is a trapezoid
