Question

three shapes are shown.

shape f (a trapezoid), shape g (a rhombus), shape h (a trapezoid-like quadrilateral)

which shapes have at least one pair of parallel sides?

a. shapes g and h
b. shapes f, g, and h
c. shapes f and g
d. shapes f and h

Explanation:

• Shape F is a trapezoid, which by definition has at least one pair of parallel sides.
• Shape G is a rhombus (a type of parallelogram), and parallelograms have two pairs of parallel sides.
• Shape H is a trapezoid (or trapezium in some definitions), so it has at least one pair of parallel sides.

Thus, all three shapes (F, G, H) have at least one pair of parallel sides.

Answer:

B. Shapes F, G, and H
