No Rigel is a huge, blue supergiant of spectral class B8 Ia, Rigel has an intrinsic brightness about 40,000 times as luminous as that of the sun.
No, but it is a SuperGiant
Yes. Rigel is the right leg of the constellation Orion and is the 6th or 7th brightest star in the sky. Rigel and all of Orion are best seen in Winter (Summer for the Southern Hemisphere) and are close to directly overhead at around 10:00 PM at Christmas. Rigel can easily be found by locating the Red Supergiant Betelgeuse (10th brightest star in the sky) and the three stars that make Orion's Belt. Rigel is a Blue Supergiant, one of the largest and hottest types of stars.
Rigel's temperature is: 11,000 K And the colour is: Blue. To be exact Rigel is a Blue supergiant.
