A square has all sides equal. A rectangle has two sets of equal sides.
a rectangle is not a square by a square having parallel sides for all but the rectangle only has one pair of parallel sides * * * * * Actually, a rectangle has two pairs of parallel sides - the same as a square. Where they differ is that a rectangle has two pairs of sides of equal length, but each pair is different from the other. In a square, all four sides are of equal length.
They both have four sides, four right angles, and two pairs of parallel sides. They differ in that the rectangle has two long sides and two short sides, while for the square, all of the sides are the same length. Having said that, a square is a special kind of rectangle.
They are both quadrilaterals with all of whose interior angles are right angles. A square has four equal sides, a rectangle has two pairs of equal sides.
a square has all 4 sides equal whereas a rectangle has two short and two long. also a square has 4 lines of symmetry and a rectangle only has two. hope that helps!
