Step-by-step explanation

Part A

A parallelogram is a special type of quadrilateral that has both pairs of opposite sides parallel and equal.

Therefore, the only parallelogram we have is figure A and figure C

part B

A rectangle is a two-dimensional shape (2D shape) in which the opposite sides are parallel and equal to each other and all four angles are right angles.

Therefore, the only rectangle we have figure A and figure C

part C

A square is a rectangle because it possesses all the properties of a rectangle. Its opposite sides are parallel and equal and the interior angles are 90∘ each. Hence, a square can be called a special type of rectangle.

Therefore, figure C is correct
