All figures with four congruent sides are rhombuses. All figures with four congruent angles are rectangles. Any shape that is both a rhombus and a rectangle is a square.

This is all about the vocabulary. First, quadrilateral, ok so a quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. Next, congruent; congruent basically means equal. So we can say what shape has four equal sides and right angles? Your basic shapes with four sides would be a trapezoid, a parallelogram, a rhombus, a rectangle or a square. The square is the only one of these that fits.
Angles and sides are congruent when they are identical. A shape with four identical sides and angles is a square.
A rhombus
A square, because congruent means equal.
All figures with four congruent sides are rhombuses. All figures with four congruent angles are rectangles. Any shape that is both a rhombus and a rectangle is a square.
A square always has, and any polygon with more than four sides can have.
It has four congruent sides.

yes because a square is, by definition, a shape having 4 ninety degree angles, and four congruent sides
yes because a square is, by definition, a shape having 4 ninety degree angles, and four congruent sides
A square has 4 equal sides, and 4 equal angles and are considered paralellagrams A rectangle has 4 equal angles but not necessarily 4 equal sides, it is also a parallelagram.. On a square all sides are congruent, while in a rectangle only opposite sides are. So when is a square not a rectangle? what defines a rectangle and a square, each shape has to have 4 right angles. the sides are parallel and that in a square all four sides are congruent while in a rectangle only the opposite sides are congruent. So a rectangle must have opposite sides that are parallel and equal and four right angles. A square must have opposite sides parallel, all sides congruent, and four right angles. a rectangle is a parallelogram with four right angles, while a square is a parallelogram with four congruent sides and four right angles. By this definition a rectangle is a square since it has opposite sides that are congruent and parallel and it has four right angles. The question is, why a rectangle is not a square? A rectangle is not a square because it is not required to have four congruent sides.
