What has four sides of equal length?

A Square has four equal length sides


Which set of properties describes a square?

It has four sides of equal length and the corner angles are all equal.


What has 4 sides 4 angles?

Various shapes do. The most obvious is a square, if you are looking for the 4 sides to be equal and the 4 angles to be equal. You can also have a rectangle or a parallelogram or a diamond shape and any arrangement of 4 sides for a shape.More generally ,it is known as a quadrilateral (a polygon with four sides and four angles).


Does a parallelogram have four right angles?

Not necessarily. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with 2 sets of 2 parallel sides. Only rectangles and squares have right angles as all four angles - a rectangle is a "special" parallelogram that has all four angles equal; a square is a "special" rectangle that has all four sides of equal length.


Is it true that a four sided shape is always a square why?

No, a four sided shape is not always a square. The mathematical name for a four sided shape is a QUADRILATERAL. The definition of a square is a four sided shape with four equal sides and angles, internal angles totalling 360 degrees and four lines of symmetry. If a shape has all of these properties, it is a square.Possibilities for a four sided shape areAs said above, all are called quadrilaterals, but some have special propertiesA Parallelogram, which has opposite sides parallel to each othera Rhombus, which has all sides equal and parallel, but not necessarily with right anglesA Rectangle, which is a parallelogram with right angles.A Square, which is a rhombus rectangle. All four sides equal, all angles equal and right, all diagonals bisecting each other. It really is hip to be square.
