Answer:

Trapezium

Explanation:

quadrilateral are geometrical shapes which have four sides

Different type of quadrilateral are

Rectangle, parallelogram, square , rhombus, kite and trapezium.

It is given that no sides are congruent.

Thus

the figure cannot be Rectangle, parallelogram, square , rhombus

as these shapes have at least one pair of sides congruent.

________________________________________

So, figure can be either kite or trapezium

But kite has no sides parallel.

Thus the shape is trapezium.

Trapezium is a quadrilateral which has one pair parallel sides but they are not same in length.

The other two sides can be congruent or cannot be congruent.
