In general, no, all rectangles have four sides, with 90 degree angles, with opposite sides parallel. The adjacent sides are generally diffferent in length, but the parallel sides are the same length.

In the special case when all sides are equal, that is called a square.

How many equal sides does rectangle have?

A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides. In other words, opposite sides of a rectangle are equal in length. This property distinguishes a rectangle from a square, which has all four sides equal in length.


Does a rectangle have all equal sides?

no it does not but it has two pairs of parallel lines. A square has all equal sides. A rectangle has 2 pairs of equal sides though!


Is a rectangle a square or a square a rectangle?

A square is rectangle with all its sides are equal in length. The rectangle has: (a) opposites sides are parallel. (b) opposite angles are equal


Is a square a rectangle and is a rectangle a square?

A square is a rectangle, but a rectangle isn't necessarily a square. A square can be thought of as a "special" rectangle, where all sides are equal. The similarity is that all rectangles have 4 angles each of 90o However a Square has 4 sides equal length while a Rectangle has 4 sides with opposite sides of equal length. The clever observer will note that the adjacent sides of a square are equal while the adjacent sides of a rectangle may or may not be equal. yes it is


Why a square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not a square?

Well, honey, a square is a type of rectangle because it has four right angles and opposite sides that are equal. But not all rectangles can be squares because squares have all sides of equal length, while rectangles can have different side lengths. It's like saying all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. Clear as crystal, right?
