A quadrilateral with the opposite side lines parallel is known as a parallelogram. If only one pair of opposite sides is parallel, the shape is a trapezoid.

A parallelogram's sides, when extended should be parallel to the side opposite of it. When a trapezoid's sides are extended, only one set of the sides are parallel, the other set is perpendicular.
