OpenStudy (anonymous):

False

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nooo silly. In a square, all the sides are of the same length! The object pictured is not a square.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its a rectangle

zepdrix (zepdrix):

It is a rectangle, but it is not a square. `Are all rectangles also squares?` Looks like we found a counter-example yes? :) So it's false, understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes your AWESOME THANKS A BUNCH!!!!!
