What is the truth value of a statement a square has 4 congruent sides and a rectangle has 4 parallel sides?
It is false.
The first part about the square is true, but the second part is false. A rectangle has two pairs of parallel sides.
The "and' means that both parts must be true for the statement to be true.
A convex polygon can have many pairs of parallel sides, but you can never have 3 or more sides all parallel to each other.

Rectangle or square. If all the sides are the same size then it is a square. if not, it is a rectangle.
Kind of quadrilaterals?
Parallelogram -- 2 pairs of parallel sides Trapezoid -- exactly 1 pair of parallel sides Rhombus -- 4 congruent sides Rectangle -- 4 angles congruent Square -- four angles and sides congruent
What are different types of quadrilaterals?
Parallelogram -- 2 pairs of parallel sides Trapezoid -- exactly 1 pair of parallel sides Rhombus -- 4 congruent sides Rectangle -- 4 angles congruent Square -- four angles and sides congruent
What are five types of quadrilaterals?
Parallelogram -- 2 pairs of parallel sides Trapezoid -- exactly 1 pair of parallel sides Rhombus -- 4 congruent sides Rectangle -- 4 angles congruent Square -- four angles and sides congruent
