What shape has 2 opposite sides parallel?
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.
A shape that has a set of parallel sides what is it called?
A geometric shape with only one set of parallel sides is a trapezoid.
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 is a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are parallel?
If only one set of opposite sides is parallel, it is a trapezoid (UK trapezium).If both pairs of opposite sides are parallel, it is a parallelogram. A parallelogram may be a rectangle, square, rhomboid, or rhombus.
Does a quadrilateral have opposite sides that are parallel?
Only if it is a trapezoid (US usage) with one set of parallel sides, or a parallelogram with both sets of opposite sides parallel. The term quadrilateral only means that the shape has 4 sides.
What shape has 2 parallel lines 2 parallel angles and only one pair of opposite sides is parallel?
An isosceles trapezoid would seem to fit the given description.
What shape has got 1 pair of parallel sides?
A trapezoid has only 1 pair of opposite parallel sides of different lengths.
Can a shape with four congruent sides have opposite sides that are NOT parallel?
Yes, but only when you go to 3 (or more) dimensions.
What figure has only one set of opposite sides that are parallel?
A trapezoid has one and only one set of opposite sides that are parallel. The other pair of opposite sides are not parallel.
What shape has 2 opposite sides parallel?
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.
If the opposite sides of a quadrilateralare parallel then what is it?
A parallelogram or possibly a trapezium if only one pair of opposite sides are parallel.
Do parallelograms have only one pair of opposite sides parallel?
No. In a parallelogram, both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.
What is a shape that is a quadrilateral and is not a parallelogram?
A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral that has two pairs of parallel sides (i.e. the sides opposite each other are parallel). A rectangle, for example, is a parallelogram. A trapezoid, however, is an example of a quadrilateral that is not a parallelogram - it has four sides, but only two of them are parallel to each other.
Dose a parallelograme have one pair of opposite parallel sides?
Does a parallelogram have one pair of opposite parallel sides? No. If only a pair of opposite sides is parallel, then it forms a trapezium and when two pairs are parallel, then it forms a parallelogram.Narasimham
A shape that has a set of parallel sides what is it called?
A geometric shape with only one set of parallel sides is a trapezoid.
In which quadrilateral is only one pair of opposite sides parallel?
The US term for the shape is trapezoid, and has only one pair of parallel sides.(The term trapezium is used for these shapes in the UK and many other countries.)
