Rectangles

A parallelogram in which all the angles are right angles is called a rectangle.

Since a general property of all parallelograms is that all adjacent angles are supplementary (add up to 180°), it is obvious that  if a  parallelogram has one right angle (90°), then all the other angles are also 90°

In addition  to the general properties of parallelograms, in a rectangle, the diagonals are of equal length,

We will show these properties using triangle congruence.
