Good answers! Just want to make a correction to Matthew's answer. A pentagon does not have parallel sides. A pentagon has 5 sides, giving us a corner opposite a side rather than two parallel sides.

Wow Matthew you know alot but since this is a simple question I would presume they want a more direct answer like retangle or square. Yes there are many others as you noted if they have even number of sides they should have parallel lines.

parallelogram, rhombus, hexagon, octagon, pentagon.
Most shapes with straight edges will have at least 1 set of parallel sides in their regular form. Any of the "agon" shapes that have an even number of sides will have parallel sides. hexa, octa, deca. I don't remember all of the names but it goes on and on.
