उत्तर

Given: `square`ABCD is a rectangle.

To prove: `square`ABCD is a parallelogram.

Proof: 

`square`ABCD is a rectangle.

∠A = ∠B = ∠C = ∠D = 90°     ...(angles of rectangle)

∠A = ∠B = ∠C = ∠D       ...(each angle 90°)

A quadrilateral is a parallelogram if its pairs of opposite angles are congruent.

∴ `square`ABCD is a parallelogram.
