What is a shape with 4 unequal sides called?
What is a shape with 4 unequal sides called?
Quadrilaterals are polygons with four sides (hence the beginning “quad”, which means “four”). A polygon with non-equal sides is called irregular, so the figure that you are describing is an irregular quadrilateral.
Which figure has 4 slanted sides?
Parallelograms
Lesson Summary Parallelograms are shapes that have four sides with two pairs of sides that are parallel. The four shapes that meet the requirements of a parallelogram are square, rectangle, rhombus, and rhomboid. A rhombus looks like a slanted square, and a rhomboid looks like a slanted rectangle.
What is a 1 million sided shape called?
Regular megagon
A megagon or 1 000 000-gon is a polygon with one million sides (mega-, from the Greek μέγας, meaning “great”, being a unit prefix denoting a factor of one million)….Megagon.

Can a rhombus have one right angle?
If a rhombus is a square, all four of its angles are right. Otherwise, all angles are either acute or obtuse, but not right.
What do you call a quadrilateral with no parallel sides?
A trapezoid (called a trapezium in the UK) has a pair of opposite sides parallel. And a trapezium (called a trapezoid in the UK) is a quadrilateral with NO parallel sides: (the US and UK definitions are swapped over!)
What is the difference between a trapezium and a quadrilateral?
And a trapezium (called a trapezoid in the UK) is a quadrilateral with NO parallel sides: An Isosceles trapezoid, as shown above, has left and right sides of equal length that join to the base at equal angles.
What’s the difference between a triangle and a quadrilateral?
They still have 4 sides, but two sides cross over. A quadrilateral is a polygon. In fact it is a 4-sided polygon, just like a triangle is a 3-sided polygon, a pentagon is a 5-sided polygon, and so on. Now that you know the different types, you can play with the Interactive Quadrilaterals.
How are opposite sides of a parallelogram the same?
A parallelogram has opposite sides parallel and equal in length. Also opposite angles are equal (angles “a” are the same, and angles “b” are the same).
