Rectangles have four right angles so, yes, all squares are rectangles because they also have four right-angled corners.

However, rectangles can have sides of any length, as long as the opposite sides are of equal length, whereas a square has all four sides of equal length.

A more technical reply could be that a rectangle has two pairs of congruent and parallel sides, which all squares have.
