Answer:

The sandbox is most likely in the shape of a kite. As it has only two right angles, it cannot be a square or other form of rectangle. It also cannot be a parallelogram, which has no right angles, nor is it a rhombus- all four sides are not of the same length.

A kite, however, has two pairs of equal-length sides that are adjacent to each other. It also has two sets of equal-measure angles, one of which can be 90° if it is a cyclic kite.
