Solution
The correct option is A Green figure
We know that parallel sides are two lines that go in the same direction but never cross each other.
The purple, pink, and yellow figures have two pairs of parallel lines, i.e., side AB is parallel to side DC and side AD is parallel to side BC.
In the green figure, sides AB and DC are parallel.
But sides AD and BC are not parallel as they do not go in the same direction.
Hence, the given shape has only one pair of parallel lines.
