A rectangle has 4 equal, 90 degree angles (one at each corner). A parallelogram may not have all equal angles. Imagine a rectangle that whose opposite corners were pulled so that it had two slanted, but parallel sides, and two straight and parallel sides. That is what some parallelograms look like. A rectangle, however, is a type of parallelogram. You can see a picture of a non-rectangular parallelogram, by clicking on the related link.

Are all parrellelograms rectangles?
No. Only some parallelograms are rectangles. But all rectangles are parallelograms.
Can a parallelogram also be a rectangle?
Some parallelograms are rectangles; all rectangles are parallelograms.
Are there some parallelograms that are rectangles?
All rectangles are parallelograms, so yes there are some.
Is every property of parallelograms also a property of all rectangles?
Yes. All rectangles are also parallelograms, but not all parallelograms are rectangles.
Are all parallelograms and rectangles the same?
No. Rectangles are parallelograms with all right angles, while parallelograms just have 2 sets of parallel lines.
