Rectangles are parallelograms with four 90o corners. These are known as right angles, and indeed, 'rectangle' comes from latin, 'rectus' meaning 'right' and 'angulus' meaning 'angle'.

A rectangle is considered a square if the sides all have equal length. Because all squares have four right angled corners, they are all, by definition, rectangles.
