Answer:

Parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are four points, this is a quadrilateral.

There is a slope during the points. Therefore it could not be a rectangle nor square. The sides are still parallel though.

The length is not equal too, so it could not be a rhombus.

If you plot these points to the graph and connect them, it would form a parallelogram.
