Step-by-step explanation:

Any polygon that has exactly 3 sides is called a triangle. Here you haven't provided any figure, so I'll assume that we have two triangles as indicated in the figure below. As you can see, we have two sides:


KM \ and \ FH

When placing together we realize that those sides measures the same, so:


KM=FH

So
KM/FH is the diagonal of the shape. From the figure we also know that opposite sides are equal and parallel, therefore, this shape represents a parallelogram. Remember that a parallelogram is a quadrilateral where both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.

So correct option is:

Parallelogram
