Any shape that is not a triangle may have 2 parallel sides, although regular polygons only have parallel sides when the number of sides is even. For a quadrilateral, a trapezoid(UK trapezium) has 1 set of parallel sides and a parallelogram (either a rhombus, rectangle, or square) has 2 sets of parallel sides.

What shape has 4 sides 2 acute angles and opposite sides which are parallel?
A trapezoid
What is a shape called with 4 equal sides and 2 parallel sides?
If it has four equal sides, then two parallel sides implies two PAIRS of parallel sides. The shape is a rhombus.
What shape has 2 short sides and 2 long sides?
Without knowing their arrangement or the angles involved, all you can say is that it is a quadrilateral (4 sides). If the long sides are opposite, parallel, and equal in length -- and if the short sides are opposite, parallel, and equal in length -- you have a parallelogram. If all of the angles of the parallelogram are right angles, you have a rectangle.
How many parallel sides does a parallelogram have?
in geometry i learned a parallelogram has only 2 pairs of parallel sides each pair of opposite sides is parallel
What is a shape with 4 sides and 2 parallel sides?
If the shape (a quadrilateral) has only 2 parallel sides, it is a trapezoid (UK trapezium).A shape with four sides and two sets of parallel sides is a parallelogram (rectangle, square, rhomboid, rhombus) because these figures have four sides and two sets of parallel sides.
What shape has 4 sides 2 acute angles and opposite sides which are parallel?
A trapezoid
What shape has 2 parallel lines 2 parallel angles and only one pair of opposite sides is parallel?
The shape you are describing is called a trapezoid. It has two parallel sides, two parallel angles, and only one pair of opposite sides is parallel.
What is 4 sided shape and 2 parallel sides?
How about a square, rectangle, rhombus or a parallelogram in which all have 2 pairs of opposite parallel sides.
A 2-D shape with opposite sides parallel?
A regular polygon with an even number of sides.
Which shape is this it's has 4 sides opposite sides 2 acute angles 2 obtuse angles opposite sides parallel opposite angles congruent?
A parallelogram or a rhombus
What is a shape that has 4 sides 2 acute angles 2 obtuse angles and opposite sides are parallel?

What quadrilateral has 2 pairs of sides with equal length and 2 pairs of opposite parallel sides?
A parallelogram is such a shape.
You have 4 sides your opposite sides are equal in length you have 2 parallel sides you have no right angles what shape are you?
trapizoid
What shape has 2 sides and is parallel?
For a shape to have parallel sides it needs at least 4 sides
What is a shape that has 2 sets of parallel sides opposite sides are congruent and has no right angles?
The description given fits that of a rhombus.
What shape has 2 touching sides of the same length and diagonals meet at right angles and opposite sides are not parallel?
triangle
Is every rectangle parallelogram?
Yes, every rectangle is a parallelogram. Parallelograms are defined as a shape with opposite, but parallel sides. A rectangle is defined as a shape with 90 degree angles, 2 sets of parallel sides, and the opposite sides must be equal in length. Because the sides of any rectangle are parallel, any qualified rectangle is a parallelogram.
