Answer:
rhombus, parallelogram, rectangle, trapezoid
- Rhombus: A square is a special case of a rhombus, because it has four equal-length sides and goes above and beyond that to also have four right angles. Every square you see will be a rhombus, but not every rhombus you meet will be a square.
- Parellelogram: Squares are quadrilaterals with 4 congruent sides and 4 right angles, and they also have two sets of parallel sides. Parallelograms are quadrilaterals with two sets of parallel sides. Since squares must be quadrilaterals with two sets of parallel sides, then all squares are parallelograms
- Rectangle: Because its all angles are 90° and length of opposite sides are equal
- Trapezoid: A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides. In a square, there are always two pairs of parallel sides, so every square is also a trapezoid. Conversely, only some trapezoids are squares.
