A square is a 4-sided regular polygon with all sides equal and all internal angles 90. A square is the only regular quadrilateral. It can also be considered as a special rectangle with both adjacent sides equal. Its opposite sides are parallel. The diagonals are congruent and bisect each other at right angles. The diagonals bisect the opposite angles. Each diagonal divides the square into two congruent isosceles right angled triangles. A square can be inscribed in a circle. A circle can be inscribed in a square touching all its sides.

Four sides of a square are equal. Adjacent sides are at right angles with each other. The area of a square is side x side sq units. The perimeter of a square is the length of distance around its boundary which is 4 times its side.
