A square has 4 corners where a pair of sides meet at right angles, so there are 4 pairs of perpendicular sides.
Now, consider this: I have 50 dollars, and you ask me if I have two dollars. I say "Yes.", because I do have 2 dollars, plus quite a bit more. If you agree with this logic, you could answer your question with a "yes". However, if the question said, "Does a square have exactly two pairs of perpendicular sides", you would have to say, "No, it has exactly four!"
