Answer:

The patio is a rectangle

Explanation:

Since it is given that we have 2 pairs of two parallel sides, which implies 4 sides, this thus shows that the shape is a quadrilateral since, only quadrilaterals have 4 sides. Also, 2 pairs of sides are the same length, and are parallel, it shows that the shape is likely a rectangle.

Finally, there are 4 square corners on the shape which implies 4 right angles. This confirms that our shape is a rectangle since only a rectangle has 2 pairs of two parallel sides and 2 pairs of sides that are the same length there are 4 square corners.

So, the patio is a rectangle.
