Trapezoid
Any shape that contains a section of a plane can have an infinite number of parallel lines in it.
British = trapezoid ; American = trapezium
Yes, it is possible for a shape to have at least one pair of parallel lines and no lines of symmetry. For example, an irregular trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides but lacks any lines of symmetry due to its uneven angles and side lengths. This demonstrates that parallel lines and symmetry are independent properties in geometric shapes.
A shape with no parallel lines is typically referred to as an "irregular shape." These shapes can have various angles and sides that do not conform to any specific geometric rules, meaning that no two lines run parallel to each other. Examples include certain polygons, like some quadrilaterals or freeform shapes in art.
A shape with 5 pairs of parallel lines can be described as a complex polygon, specifically a decagon (10 sides). However, to have 5 pairs of parallel lines, the shape would need to be more specialized, resembling a geometric figure like a polygon with alternating sides, such as a star polygon or a combination of multiple rectangles. Each pair of parallel lines indicates that there are 10 lines total contributing to the shape's outline. The exact configuration would depend on how the lines are arranged and connected.

It is called a parallelogram. or a square........ or a rectangle.........

There are parallel lines, rectangles and arrays of stars 5 by 6 and 4 by 5.
A geometric shape with only one set of parallel sides is a trapezoid.
A trapezoid has two parallel lines.
A rhombus has parallel lines but no perpendicular lines.
a rectangle
