Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

A. trapezoid

Explanation:

The missing angle U is 86°, the value that makes the total be 360°. Then the top two angles total 180°, as do the bottom two angles. This means sides SV and TU are parallel, but sides UV and ST are not.

The figure has one pair of parallel sides, so is a trapezoid.

A concave quadrilateral has a reflex angle. This figure does not.
