A quadrilateral.
If the short sides are equal in length and the long sides are equal in length then it is a kite.
Otherwise it could be a trapezium (eg one with sides 4, 5, 16, 13) or it is an irregular quadrilateral.

What has 2 short sides and 2 long sides?
Definitely a quadrilateral. However, if the short sides are equal in length, and the long sides are equal in length then it could be a Kite, Rectangle or Parallelogram, depending upon whether the two short sides are next to, or opposite to, each other, and in the latter case if the angles are all 90° or not. Also, if two of the sides are parallel but the other two are not, then it could be a trapezium.
What has 4 sides 2 short sides and 2 long sides?
rectangle...?
What shape has two short sides and two long sides?
a rectangle
The length of a rectangle is 3 more than twice its width The perimeter is 48 feet Find the width?
Each of the short sides is 7 feet long and each of the long sides is 7x2 (14) + 3 which equals 17 feet long. So the width is 7 feet.
Where is the length and width of a rectangle located?
A rectangle is a four-sided figure with two long sides and two short sides. The two long sides are the length of the rectangle. The two short sides are the width of the rectangle.
Why is a kite not a rectangle when it has 2 long sides and 2 short sides?
Because it takes a lot more than just "2 long sides and 2 short sides" to make a rectangle. -- The 2 long sides have to be equal. -- They have to be opposite each other, not next to each other. -- The 2 short sides have to be equal. -- They have to be opposite each other, not next to each other. -- At least one of the angles where two sides come together has to be 90 degrees.
Does a rectangle have opposite sides equall?
yes, the short sides are opposite and the long sides are also oppiste to each to each other.
What other name is for a rectangle?
Rectangles are quadrangles, polygons with four sides. A rectangle is a quadrangle with two long sides and two short sides, and the long sides and short sides are parallel to each other. They are parallelograms, in which opposite sides are parallel. Note: All squares are also rectangles.
To draw a quadrangle that has 2 pairs of equal sides but is Not a parallelogram?
A kite shape is one example -- 2 long sides adjacent to each other & 2 short sides adjacent to each other.

What is a four-sided polygon with two short sides the same length two long sides the same length and the same length sides are next to each other?
rectangle
What is the opposite sides are parallel?
In a rectangle, opposite sides are of equal length. So basically, the two shorter sides are the same length as each other, and the two bigger sides are equal length to each other. However, the short and long sides aren't equal.
How long can the sides of a triangle be?
Individual sides can be of any (positive) length. Also, each of the sides has to be smaller than the sum of the other two sides.
Can polygons have curved sides as long as they are connected to the other sides only at their end points?
No it cant. Polygons must have straight sides. The sides also can't cross each other.

Does a trapezium have a right angle?
Only if it was a rectangle, but then we wouldn't usually call it a trapezium. A trapezium should have a long and a short side parallel to each other with two other sides joining the parallel ones.
