Answer: B) Rectangle

A rectangle is a special type of parallelogram. Any parallelogram has two pairs of opposite parallel sides. A rectangle is a parallelogram where all four angles are the same, and all four angles are 90 degrees.

Keep in mind that not all parallelograms are rectangles, but any rectangle is always a parallelogram.

In slight contrast, a trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel lines, while the other pair of opposite sides are not parallel. Triangles of any kind can be ruled out because they don't have any parallel sides at all.
