Want this question answered?
Because there opposite sides are congruent. And all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares!
The ones that have are called 'squares'.

squares are rectangles because they are both four sided but rectangles are not squares because a rectangle doesn't have equal sides and squares have equal sides
Rectangles have four right angles so, yes, all squares are rectangles because they also have four right-angled corners. However, rectangles can have sides of any length, as long as the opposite sides are of equal length, whereas a square has all four sides of equal length. A more technical reply could be that a rectangle has two pairs of congruent and parallel sides, which all squares have.
No, rectangles do not have congruent sides. Squares have congruent sides.
No, only those rectangles that are squares have four congruent sides.
When two adjacent sides are equal (congruent).

Parallelograms, rhombuses, squares, and rectangles are the quadrilaterals that have opposite congruent sides.
a rectangle has 4 right angles. A rhombus has four congruent sides. A square has four right angles and four congruent sides. All squares are rectangles because all rectangles have 4 right angles, and all squares have four right angles. But not all rectangles are squares because not all rectangles have congruent sides.
No. Squares technically qualify as rectangles (parallel opposite sides, ninety degree angles, opposite sides are congruent, etc.) however rectangles do not qualify as squares. Squares MUST have four sides of equivalent length, and rectangles do not meet this criterion.
The characteristics for a rectangle is that it has to have 4 right angles and 2 pairs of congruent and parallel sides. Squares have to meet these requirements and also have to have all sides congruent. All rectangles meet to the rectangle's standard, but not all of them meet up to a square's standard. Therefore, not all rectangles are squares. Or, in a more simplified version: squares are a type of rectangle, but rectangles are not a type of squares, therefore not all rectangles are squares.

Yes, a square will always be congruent, but rectangles also can be squares too. This is where you choose whether or not it is or not.
