Answer:

trapezoids.

Explanation:

rectangles will always have symmetry because they have 90-degree angles and can't be irregular. squares are rectangles so they also have symmetry. Rhombi by definition have two pairs of identical angles, so they must be symmetrical.

Trapezoids have angled sides, which don't have to be the same, therefore, trapezoids makes the statement false

Answer. Trapezoids
Explanation. All squares must have all equal sides. Rectangles must have at least two equal sides. When looking at a trapezoid, we know that not all sides (or necessarily any) are the same;therefore, the answer is trapezoid. Hope this helps, let me know if it’s correct so others can use it :)
Good luck.
