All four angles of a square are equal (each being 360°/4 = 90°, a right angle). All four sides of a square are equal. The diagonals of a square are equal.

In Euclidean plane geometry, a rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles. It can also be defined as: an equiangular quadrilateral, since equiangular means that all of its angles are equal (360°/4 = 90°); or a parallelogram containing a right angle.

360°

The Rectangle A rectangle is a four-sided shape where every angle is a right angle (90°). Also opposite sides are parallel and of equal length.

A rectangle is a quadrilateral because it has four sides, and it is a parallelogram because it has two pairs of parallel, congruent sides. All four angles are right angles.

All sides are the same length (congruent) and all interior angles are the same size (congruent). To find the measure of the interior angles, we know that the sum of all the angles is 360 degrees (from above)… And there are four angles… So, the measure of the interior angle of a square is 90 degrees.

Why is Square called Square? Square was initially called Squirrel. The card reader was even a wooden acorn. Imagine if people said, “just Squirrel it.” Possibly, Dorsey was reliving his early days at Twitter.
