All rectangles have 4 sides, 2 sides are longer, while 2 sides are shorter. Both the 2 longer sides are parallel to each other and also the 2 shorter sides are parallel to each other.
<h2>Further Explanation</h2>
The properties that all rectangle shares include:
All rectangles have 2 pairs of sides that are equal and opposite to each other
In all rectangles, the exterior and interior angles are 90 degrees.
The two diagonal lines are congruent, which means they are of the same length and bisect each other
In a rectangle, the product of the two adjacent sides is the area.
The area of a rectangle is length x width, can be expressed as A = (l x w)
In a rectangle, if the two diagonal lines bisect each other at the right angles, then it means its figure is a square
If in case, the two diagonal lines bisect each other at different angles, then it implies one
A diagonal line is acute while the other diagonal line is obtuse.
The perimeter of a rectangle is 2 (length x width), which can also be expressed as P = 2 (l x w).
It is interesting to note that:
For a quadrilateral to be a rectangle, the shape must have four sides
For a parallelogram to be a rectangle, the shape of the two sides must be parallel to each other.
