Can a square also be a rectangle?
A square is a special case of a rectangle. Every square is a rectangle, but not every rectangle is a square. A square is a rectangle with four sides that are all equal in length.
Is any fact that is true for every rectangle is also true for every square?
No. "The lengths of adjacent sides can be different." True for a rectangle, not true for a square.
Is every ractangle a square?
No, but every square is a rectangle.
Why is every square also a rectangle?
A rectangle has four sides, in two pairs of equal length, and four angles, all of which are right angles. A square satisfies all of these requirements so a square is a rectangle. In adition, the two pairs of sides of a square are of equal length as well. That makes the square a very special kind of rectangle, but it is still a rectangle.
Explain why a square is also a rectangle?
A square is a rectangle because a square has 2 parallel sides and so does a rectangle .
