Area of Rectangle = Area of Square.
S/2 x (S+5) = S2
S2+5s =2s2
S2-2s2 +5 =0
S(- s +5) =0
S=0, S=5

Why a square can be rectangle and rectangle can not be square?
The above statement is not true since some rectangles ARE squares. Squares are a special type of a rectangle - one in which all sides are of equal length. In other words, the set of all squares is a subset of the set of all rectangles.
Is a retangle a square or is a square a rectangle?
A square is a rectangle, rectangles don't have to be squares but squares have to be rectangles.

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.
What makes square and rectangle the same?
They are not technically the same. A square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not a square. A rectangle requires opposite sides to be the same length. A square's opposite sides are the same length so it is a rectangle. A square requires all sides to be the same length, not just opposite sides. So most rectangles are not squares.
Why are all squares rectangles but not all rectangles squares?

Length = 9 Width = 9 Your rectangle is a square.
Area to get the surface area of a rectangle?
Multiply the length by the width. If the rectangle is a square the two dimensions will be the same
How much square ins is a rectangle?
Without the dimensions, we won't be able to tell. The area of a rectangle is the length times the width. If those dimensions are in inches, the area will be in square inches.
