o  A rectangle is a quadrilateral where every angle is a right angle (The little
                                        squares in each corner mean "right angle") and
                                    o  opposite sides are parallel and of equal length.

                           Square :
                                        o  A square is a quadrilateral where every angle is a right angle (The little
                                           squares in each corner mean "right angle") and















                                        o  has equal sides (marked "s") and
                                        o  opposite sides are parallel.
                           Rhombus :













                                           o  A rhombus is a quadrilateral where all sides have equal length
                                               (marked "s") and
                                           o  opposite sides are parallel and
                                           o  opposite angles are equal.
                                           o  The diagonals (dashed lines) meet in the middle at a right angle,
                                               i.e. they "bisect" (cut in half) each other at right angles.
