Because it takes a lot more than just "2 long sides and 2 short sides"
to make a rectangle.
-- The 2 long sides have to be equal.
-- They have to be opposite each other, not next to each other.
-- The 2 short sides have to be equal.
-- They have to be opposite each other, not next to each other.
-- At least one of the angles where two sides come together has to be 90 degrees.
A square has four equal sides but a rectangle has two long sides and two short sides
Rectangles are quadrangles, polygons with four sides. A rectangle is a quadrangle with two long sides and two short sides, and the long sides and short sides are parallel to each other. They are parallelograms, in which opposite sides are parallel. Note: All squares are also rectangles.
A square has 4 equal sides. A rectangle has 2 short sides of equal length and 2 long sides of equal length
NO You see that a rectangle has 2 long sides and 2 short side THAT IS HOW TO PROVE THE answer
A Rectangle!
A rectangle is a four-sided figure with two long sides and two short sides. The two long sides are the length of the rectangle. The two short sides are the width of the rectangle.

A square has four equal sides but a rectangle has two long sides and two short sides
Definitely a quadrilateral. However, if the short sides are equal in length, and the long sides are equal in length then it could be a Kite, Rectangle or Parallelogram, depending upon whether the two short sides are next to, or opposite to, each other, and in the latter case if the angles are all 90° or not. Also, if two of the sides are parallel but the other two are not, then it could be a trapezium.

It has two short sides and two long sides. The sides come in pairs of parallel lines. The sides make 4 right angles at the corners.

a kite has four sides, 2 of each in equal length. just like a rectangle, but a kite has two acute angles, and two obtuse angles.. a rectangle has 4 angles, 90 degrees in measure each. the inside angles must equal 360 degrees, so they can be any numbers, as long as they add up to 360.

A Rectangle!
yes, the short sides are opposite and the long sides are also oppiste to each to each other.
