Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
it's a parallelogram
opposite sides are parallel and opposite angles are equal
it's not a rhombus, as all 4 sides are not equal
it's not a square as all 4 sides are not equal and all 4 angles are not equal
it's not a trapezoid (known as a trapezium in Canada) as it has 2 pairs of parallel lines, not just one
the definitions of A, B, and C are not correct. Also the quadrilateral doesn't fit correct definitions for square, rhombus and trapezoid.
ED=FG = sqr(3^2+1^2) = sqr10 = about 3.16
ED is parallel to FG
EF=DG = sqr(4^2+1^2) = sqr17 = about 4.12
EF is parallel to DG
Angle D= Angle F
Angle E = Angle G
