Well, A square is a type of rectangle, so I image 12 squares is the same as saying 12 rectangles. Unless the squares are touching each other, then if two squares are touching then another rectangle would be formed.. etc etc

Why are some rectangles not 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
Are all squares rectangles but not all rectangles squares?
Yes, all Squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares because it needs to have all equal sides.
What are the differences of squares and rectangles?
Squares have four equal sides and equal angles, rectangles only have two.
Do squares and rectangles have 4 sides of equal length?
Well, squares do have equal sides but rectangles have two pairs of equal sides
Why rectangles can't be squares?
One of the properties of squares is four equal sides. Rectangles don't have equal sides
Is a sqare always a rectangle?
no, but a square is always a rectangle. You see, squares have 4 equal sides. Rectangles don't HAVE to have 4 equal sides, but one side is equal to the opposite. So, all squares are rectangles, but not are rectangles are squares.
An odject has 12 edges and its faces are rectangles and squares what is it?
A rectangular prism has 12 edges with rectangles and squares for faces
Why are rectangles squares?
Rectangles are not squares. The reason to this is because squares must have sides of equal lengths. Rectangles are quadrilaterals with sides that join to make 90 degree angles, but are not restricted to having the same length. Therefore "all squares are rectangles", but rectangles cannot be squares.
Is every rectangle also a square?
Yes all squares meet the requirements of a rectangle. They are equiangular quadrilaterals (have 4 equal angles) and have two pairs of opposite parallel sides. Squares are a subset of all equilateral rectangles. Thus, all squares are rectangles, but only some rectangles are squares.Yes all squares are rectangles because they have four equal angles and two pairs of opposite parallel sides. Not all rectangles are squares however, because only some of them are equilateral.
Which statements about squares and rectangles are true?
The statements:It is a quadrilateral (a shape with 4 sides)It has two pairs of opposite sides equal of equal length which are parallelAll angles are equal at 90°The diagonals are equal in length and bisectall squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squaresare all true about squares and rectangles
Are rectangles always squares?
No. Although squares are always rectangles, rectangles are not always squares. A square has four sides of equal length and four right angles. Rectangles must only have four right angles.
What rectangle has for equal sides?
A rectangle can't have four equal sides. That previous answer is incorrect. The rhyme "all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares" can help you. The correct answer is a square.
