This is false. Every rectangle is a parallelogram, but the converse (your statement) is not true.

Imagine the set of all quadrilaterals (4 sided polygons). Within that set would be sets of kites, parallelograms, and other quadrilaterals.

Within the parallelogram set, would be rectangles, rhombuses and other parallelograms. Then if a rhombus is also a rectangle, it would be a square, that would be the intersection of the set of rectangles and set of rhombuses. Hope this helps.

Is every rectangle is a parallelogram?

No. A rectangle is a parallelogram because all of its sides are parallel, but a parallelogram is not a rectangle because it does not have all right angles. It is a true statement to say that all rectangles are parallelograms. However, the statement that all parallelograms are rectangles is false. A parallelogram is a shape where its opposite sides are parallel to each other, including squares, hexagons, octagons, etc.
