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
How many parallel sides does a cuboid have?
A cuboid, also known as a rectangular prism, has 4 pairs of parallel sides. This means that it has a total of 12 parallel sides. Each pair of parallel sides is opposite to each other, creating a rectangular shape with equal and parallel sides.
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.
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.
