what figure has two pairs of parallel sides but is not a parralelogram?
--------------
Rectangle?
Square?
These 2 might be considered special cases of a parallelogram, tho.
----------
Then there's
Hexagon
Octagon
any regular polygon with an even # of sides.
NOTE: it doesn't exactly 2 pairs. Having 3 pairs, as the hexagon, still has 2 pairs.
It's like "How many months have 28 days?" All of them.
