Question
5
select the correct shapes.
select all of the shapes that have at least one pair of parallel sides.
Step1: Analyze the triangle
A triangle (the purple shape) has three sides, and by the definition of a triangle, its sides meet at angles, and there are no parallel sides. So it is excluded.
Step2: Analyze the rectangle
A rectangle (the orange shape) has opposite sides that are parallel. By the properties of a rectangle, both pairs of opposite sides are parallel, so it has at least one pair (in fact two pairs) of parallel sides.
Step3: Analyze the pink quadrilateral
The pink quadrilateral appears to be a trapezoid? No, looking at its sides, none of the sides seem to be parallel (visually, the sides are not aligned in a way that they would never meet if extended). So it is excluded.
Step4: Analyze the parallelogram
A parallelogram (the green shape) has both pairs of opposite sides parallel by definition. So it has at least one pair (two pairs) of parallel sides.
