Answer:

The figure is a rectangle

Explanation:

we know that

The sum of the interior angles in a quadrilateral must be equal to 360 degrees

so

In this problem

if three of the angles are right angles then the fourth will also be a right angle

therefore

A rectangle has opposite sides parallel and congruent and the measure of the interior angles are right angles (has only two congruent sides )

A square has four congruent sides and the measure of the interior angles are right angles

A rhombus has four congruent sides and the measure of the interior angles are not right angles

A quadrilateral is any polygon with four sides
