A rectangle is a square when all of its sides are the same length.
A rectangle is SOMETIMES a square.
However, a square, is ALWAYS a rectangle.
This is due to the properties held by a rectangle as well as properties of a square.
Properties of Rectangle:
- Opposite sides are congruent.
- All angles are 90o.
- Opposite sides are parallel.
- Opposite central angles created by the diagonals are congruent.
- All diagonals are congruent.
Properties of a Square:
- All sides are congruent.
- All angles are 90o.
- Opposite sides are congruent.
- Opposite sides are parallel.
- Diagonals intersect at a 90o angle.
- All diagonals are congruent.
So one can have a square that is always a rectangle due to the properties. However, a rectangle will only be a square if properties are the same as a square.
