How rectangle and square are different?

Answer 1

Squares have four equal sides; rectangles have two pairs of equal opposing sides (top and bottom are equal; both sides are equal; top and bottom and sides are not equal to each other). Squares have all 4 sides equal, while 2 parallel sides of a rectangle are equal and the other 2 parallel sides are equal too.

Generally, a square is also a rectangle.

Answer 2

A rectangle is classified as an equiangular parallelogram, meaning, all angles in the shape are congruent. Since a rectangle is a quadrilateral this would mean all angles sum to 90Ëš. Another factor that just happens to be true for all rectangles is that a rectangle's diagonals are congruent. Also, since a rectangle is a parallelogram, it has the properties of any parallelogram. This would include having opposite sides and angles as congruent and having opposite sides being parallel.

A square is classified as an equiangular and equilateral parallelogram (an equilateral parallelogram is a parallelogram who has all congruent sides, which is known as the rhombus). This basically means that a square is a rhombus and a rectangle all in one, meaning that the square has all the properties of a rhombus and a rectangle, not to mention the generic parallelogram. Since we have not mentioned rhombus properties we will only go over those. In a rhombus (and a square), all diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other, all sides are congruent, and all diagonals bisect the included angles. And remembering that a square is also a rectangle and a parallelogram as well, just remember the properties listed above.
