Difference & Similarity between Square & Rectangle

Area of Rectangle Perimeter of Rectangle Diagonals of Rectangle Difference & Similarity between Square & Rectangle

Following points helps us to understand similarities and differences between a square and a rectangle. The highlighted part is the difference between square and rectangle.

SquareRectangle
  • A square is a quadrilateral
  • A rectangle is also a quadrilateral
  • 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
  • Opposite sides of square are parallel to each other
  • Opposite sides of rectangle are also parallel to each other
  • Diagonals of square are equal
  • Diagonals of rectangle are also equal
  • Diagonals of square bisect each other
  • Diagonal of rectangle also bisect each other
  • All sides of square are of equal length
  • Only opposite side of rectangle are of equal length
  • Diagonals of square are perpendicular bisector of each other
  • Diagonals of rectangle are not perpendicular bisector of each other


  • Hence, you can observe what are the similarities between a Square and Rectangle. The highlighted part is the difference between a Square and a Rectangle.
