The main difference is that a rectangle has 4 equal interior right angles whereas a parallelogram has 2 equal interior obtuse angles and 2 equal interior acute angles
Both have two sets of parallel lines, but a rectangle forms four equal 90 degree angles. A parallelogram does not have four equal angles.
