The main difference between a rectangle and a parallelogram that makes rectangle a special case of the parallelogram is the fact that all the angles of a rectangle are equal to 90 degrees. This is not the case in a parallelogram because the adjacent angles are only supplementary to each other.

They are not all rectangles because a rectangle is a special case of a parallelogram where all angles = 90 degrees.
