How come not all rectangles are squares?

The characteristics for a rectangle is that it has to have 4 right angles and 2 pairs of congruent and parallel sides. Squares have to meet these requirements and also have to have all sides congruent. All rectangles meet to the rectangle's standard, but not all of them meet up to a square's standard. Therefore, not all rectangles are squares. Or, in a more simplified version: squares are a type of rectangle, but rectangles are not a type of squares, therefore not all rectangles are squares.

16 1x1 rectangles + 12 2x1 rectangles + 8 3x1 rectangles + 4 4x1 rectangles + 12 1x2 rectangles + 9 2x2 rectangles + 6 3x2 rectangles + 3 4x2 rectangles + 8 1x3 rectangles + 6 2x3 rectangles + 4 3x3 rectangles + 2 4x3 rectangles + 4 1x4 rectangles + 3 2x4 rectangles + 2 3x4 rectangles + 1 4x4 rectangle. A Grand Total of: 100 squares and rectangles. OR: A rectangle is formed by 2 horizontal lines and 2 vertical lines. There are 5 horizontal and 5 vertical lines so the number of rectangles is 5C2 * 5C2 = 10 * 10 = 100
