Is a rectangle always a square why?
No. The square is a special case of rectangle where all the sides are of equal length. So some rectangles are squares, and all squares are rectangles.
Why are some rectangles not squares?
squares are rectangles because they are both four sided but rectangles are not squares because a rectangle doesn't have equal sides and squares have equal sides
Are some rectangles similar?
no some rectangles cannot be similar. a rectangle is a shape with 2 = sides and then 2 more different = sides. it is impossible because if 2 rectangles were similar than that would not be a rectangle. similar means having corresponding sides no it is not possible
Is it true some rectangles are not parallelograms?
No. All rectangles are parallelograms, specifically those with two pair of parallel sides and all right angles.
Can a square be a rectangle but can a rectangle be a square?
Yes.A square is a special kind of rectangle, one with all sides of equal length. So all square are rectangles.All rectangles are not squares, some (most) have two sides longer than the other two.
Explain how factors are related to rectangles?
Some people like to visualize factors as representing the lengths of sides of rectangles. In the same way that length times width equals area, factor times factor equals product.
Is a rectangle always a square why?
No. The square is a special case of rectangle where all the sides are of equal length. So some rectangles are squares, and all squares are rectangles.
Are all rectangles squares?
No. A square must be a rectangle, but a rectangle does not have to be a square.A square is a rectangle that has four sides of equal length.--A rectangle MUST have the following:Four sidesFour angles that are right angles (90 degrees), so that the total is 360 degrees.Two pairs of parallel sidesTwo pairs of equal sidesA square MUST have the following:Four sides (All must be the same length)Four angles(Must all be 90 degrees)Two pairs of parallel sidesBecause of that not all rectangles are squares but all squares are rectangles.---Rectangles are parallelograms with all right angles, and opposite sides are congruent. Squares are parallelograms with all right angles, and ALL sides congruent. Therefore, all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.False! squares have 4 equal sides and rectangles don't they only have 2 equal sides. Some rectangles are squares, but not all of them. On the other hand, all squares are rectangles.
Are some rectangles quadrilaterals?
All rectangles are quadrilaterals. A quadrilateral has 4 sides; all rectangles have 4 sides; thus all rectangles are quadrilaterals.
Difference between a cube and a cuboid?
All edges of a cube are the same length. A cuboid has three quartets of lines: at least one of which is of a length different from the other two. Equivalently, all sides of a cube are squares, at least some sides of a cuboid are rectangles.
Why can a square be called a rectangle but a rectangle cannot be called a square?
A rectangle is classed as any quadrilateral with four right angles, whereas a square is classed as a rectangle with all sides the same length. This being the case, all squares can be called rectangles, not all rectangles can be called squares, as some have sides of different lengths.
Do rectangles have diagonals that are perpendicular?
I think rectangles do not have perpendicular sides. there are some perpendicular sides in a rectangle stupid person
Why are some rectangles not squares?
squares are rectangles because they are both four sided but rectangles are not squares because a rectangle doesn't have equal sides and squares have equal sides
Is every rectangle also a square?
Yes all squares meet the requirements of a rectangle. They are equiangular quadrilaterals (have 4 equal angles) and have two pairs of opposite parallel sides. Squares are a subset of all equilateral rectangles. Thus, all squares are rectangles, but only some rectangles are squares.Yes all squares are rectangles because they have four equal angles and two pairs of opposite parallel sides. Not all rectangles are squares however, because only some of them are equilateral.
What is true of all rhombuses?
-- The rhombus has four sides. -- All four of its sides are equal in length. -- Its opposite sides are parallel. -- The sum of its interior angles is 360 degrees. -- Its opposite angles are equal. -- Its diagonals are perpendicular and bisect each other. A rhombus with all 4 angles equal (at 90°) is called a square (which is a special kind of rectangle in which all 4 sides are of equal length); thus some rhombuses are rectangles (and some rectangles are rhombuses).
Are some rectangles similar?
no some rectangles cannot be similar. a rectangle is a shape with 2 = sides and then 2 more different = sides. it is impossible because if 2 rectangles were similar than that would not be a rectangle. similar means having corresponding sides no it is not possible
What figure has 6 faces with some of them rectangles?
A rectangular prism is a hexahedron with some rectangular sides. There is no requirement that all sides be rectangles. If they are, the solid is a right rectangular prism, or cuboid.
