How do I prove that a quadrilateral is a rectangle?
maw [93]
I think you want to prove that a rectangle is a quadrilateral. You can prove this with definitions. The definition of a quadrilateral is that it is a shape with four sides. Since a rectangle has four sides, that proves that a rectangle is a quadrilateral.
