The definition I just now found online for a rectangle is:

A quadrilateral with four right angles.

To me, it seems that squares and rhombuses can fit that definition,

if they want to, but don't necessarily have to.

Why can a rectangle also be a square?

it cant all sides have to be equilateral edit- a rectangle cannot be a square. however, a square can be a rectangle. reedit - A rectangle can be a square, however, a square must be a rectangle. A rectangle has four 90 degree angles, which a square also has. The rectangle has two pairs of equal length sides, which a square also has. The only additional requirement for a square is that the length of all four sides be equal, which is not ruled out for a rectangle.
