  • A square is a quadrilateral
  • A rectangle is also a quadrilateral
  • A parallelogram is also a quadrilateral
  • Opposite sides of square are parallel to each other
  • Opposite sides of rectangle are also parallel to each other
  • Opposite sides of parallelogram are also parallel to each other
  • Opposite angles of rectangle are equal
  • Opposite angles of square are also equal
  • opposite angles of parallelogram are also equal
  • Adjacent angles of rectangle are supplementary
  • Adjacent angles of square are also supplementary
  • Adjacent angles of parallelogram are also supplementary
  • Diagonals of rectangle bisect each other
  • Diagonals of square also bisect each other
  • Diagonals of parallelogram also bisect each other
  • All angles of a Square are of 90 Degree each i.e. right angled at each vertex
  • All angles of a Rectangle are also of 90 Degree each i.e. right angled at each vertex
  • Angles of parallelogram can be of different degree
  • All sides of square are of equal length
  • Only opposite side of rectangle are of equal length
  • Only opposite side of parallelogram are of equal length
  • Diagonals of Rectangle are of equal length
  • Diagonals of Square are also of equal length
  • Diagonals of parallelogram are not of equal length
  • Diagonals of rectangle are not perpendicular bisector of each other
  • Diagonals of Square are perpendicular bisector of each other
  • Diagonals of parallelogram are also not perpendicular bisector of each other


  • Hence, you can observe that the similarities between a Square, a Rectangle and a Parallelogram. The highlighted part shows that the differences between a Square, a Rectangle and a Parallelogram.
