A parallelogram with 4 congruent sides.
A parallelogram is a shape with 2 pairs of parallel sides.
To be parallel means that the lines run like railroad tracks. They will never, ever touch.
Let's look at some common parallelograms!
Rectangle
Square
For something to be congruent, it means to be "the same as", or identical.
Of the parallelograms I listed, which shape has all 4 sides "congruent" (the same as) one another?
That's right, a square.
A rectangle has 4 sides, but usually 2 sides are congruent to one another, and then the other pair is congruent to themselves. however, all 4 sides aren't the same in a rectangle, just a square.
