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

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.
Which shapes have a parallel sides?
All regular polygons with an even number of sides. Irregular polygons with an odd number of sides can have parallel sides. There are also non polygonal shapes that can have parallel sides.
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.
Characteristics of two dimensional shapes?
It all depends on the shape; different 2D geometrical shapes have different characteristics.Some specialized geometrical shapes:Square: 4 sides; 4 equal sides; 2 pairs of parallel sides; 4 right angles (90 degrees)* A square is a rectangle.Rectangle: 4 sides; 2 pairs of parallel sides; 4 right angles (90 degrees)* A rectangle is not a square.Triangle (equilateral): 3 sides; 3 equal sides; all angles 60 degreesTriangle (isosceles): 3 sides; 2 equal sides (usually the base is the odd one)Triangle (scalene): 3 sides; all uneven sides and anglesRhombus: 4 sides; 4 equal sides; 2 pairs of parallel sides; 4 equal anglesParallelogram: 4 sides; 1 pair of parallel sidesThese are the basic geometrical 2D shapes, but there are others that are more complex.
Which of these shapes is a 4-sided figure that has 4 right angles 4 equal sides and 2 pairs of parallel sides?
it is the square
What is a trapezoid and a rhombus?
Trapezoids and rhombuses are quadrilateral shapes. A trapezoid has 2 sides that are parallel and a rhombus has 4 sides that equal the same length.
Shapes with two parallel sides?
A shape with four or more sides can have two 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
How many parallel sides are on a nonagon?
There are no parallel sides on a nonagon (nine-sided figure)... Regular shapes with an odd-number of sides have no parallel sides.
A shape with no pairs of parallel sides?
all triangles fit this description, as would many irregular (not all sides are of equal length) versions of shapes with more sides
