For this case, we have that:

  • By definition, a rectangle is a parallelogram. So, we discard the first option.
  • On the other hand, we have that all rectangles can not be squares, since a square has all its sides equal, while the rectangle, poir definition, no.So, we discard the second option.
  • All quadrilaterals are not rectangles because there are other figures with four sides that are not necessarily rectangular. We discard the third option.
  • Finally, we have that all squares are rectangles. This statement is true since squares can be rectangles with pairs of equal sides.
