What is one fact about a rectangle?
Each angle of a rectangle is equal to the angle opposite.

Not necessarily. In fact, if a rectangle and parallelogram have the same base and height, their areas are equal.
How do you draw a rectangle with a perimeter of 20 units and an area of 25 square units?
The rectangle is in fact a square with 4 equal sides of 5 units in length.
Every Rectangle is a rhombus?
A rectangle can sometimes be a rhombus, as a square is both a rectangle and a rhombus. However, if all sides are congruent, and it has right angles, it is a square and therefore not a rectangle. So, the answer is no, although it may be argued to be yes. Wikipedia, in fact, mentions that a square is both a rectangle and a rhombus; the definition of rectangle there is a quadrilateral with four right angles, thereby not excluding the special case of a rectangular rhombus, or a square. A rhombus is not normally a square but it could be.
B No square is a rectangle?
Your phrasing was a bit confusing, so I'll reword: Is a square a rectangle?
