A rectangle has consecutive sides that are congruent?
No. A rectangle has opposite sides congruent. If consecutive sides are also congruent, then your rectangle is a square.
Has 2 pairs of opposite sides congruent?
rectangle
When is a square not a rectangle?
A square has 4 equal sides, and 4 equal angles and are considered paralellagrams A rectangle has 4 equal angles but not necessarily 4 equal sides, it is also a parallelagram.. On a square all sides are congruent, while in a rectangle only opposite sides are. So when is a square not a rectangle? what defines a rectangle and a square, each shape has to have 4 right angles. the sides are parallel and that in a square all four sides are congruent while in a rectangle only the opposite sides are congruent. So a rectangle must have opposite sides that are parallel and equal and four right angles. A square must have opposite sides parallel, all sides congruent, and four right angles. a rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles, while a square is a parallelogram with four congruent sides and four right angles. By this definition a rectangle is a square since it has opposite sides that are congruent and parallel and it has four right angles. The question is, why a rectangle is not a square? A rectangle is not a square because it is not required to have four congruent sides.
What is a rectangle with slanted sides?
If it is 'slanted' it is not a rectangle. If the opposite sides are congruent (just like a rectangle) but the angles are not 90 degrees, it is a parallelogram.
