A four-sided polygon with two parallel sides is called a trapezoid. In a trapezoid, the two parallel sides are known as the bases, while the non-parallel sides are called the legs. The parallel sides of a trapezoid are of different lengths, distinguishing it from a parallelogram where both pairs of opposite sides are parallel and equal in length. The sum of the interior angles of a trapezoid is always equal to 360 degrees.

A four-sided polygon with two parallel sides is called a trapezoid (US) or trapezium (UK). It requires that the parallel sides are not equal in length, or they would form a parallelogram. A trapezoid's bases are parallel, but the legs are not.
