Question

Which of the following figures satisfy the following property?

– Only one pair of sides are parallel.

• A.

  

• B.

  

• C.

  

• D.

  

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Determine the correct shape.

Figure $\mathrm{P}$ is a trapezium, it has one pair of parallel sides.

Figure $\mathrm{Q}$ is a parallelogram, it has two pairs of parallel sides.

Figure $\mathrm{R}$ is a square, it has equal sides, all four angles of a square are right angles, and both pairs of sides of the square are parallel.

Figure $\mathrm{S}$ is a rectangle, it has all four angles as right angles and both pairs of sides of a rectangle are parallel.

From the description mentioned above, the trapezium has only one pair of parallel sides.

So, the correct answer is figure $\mathrm{P}$ or option $\left(\mathrm{a}\right)$.
