Vexillology quiz.

Is the square being a rectangle in the same vein as all Tequila is Mezcal, but not all Mezcal is Tequila?

Is the fact a square is a rectangle common knowledge? Or is this a simple fact I've forgotten since school? I'm disgusted at myself for not knowing this.

I'd never considered it, until I saw it here, then I shrugged and went makes sense.

Did you also know that triangles have 3 sides and that 3 is the magic number.  And if you add 3 to 5 and take the total away from 50 you'll end up with 42.

42 being the meaning of life, obviously.  Makes you think, eh.

This makes more sense to me than a square being a rectangle!

That's what they want you to think... there are no countries really - we're all under the control of the left wing trans elite!

I read it in the Spectator whilst researching.

[Derek Hardballs]

3 Nations have non-rectangular flags, can you name them? 

This is sad, I know. But let's see if anyone can get these without Google.

Quadrilateral. A rectangle has 4 right angles.

If it makes you feel better Josh I had no clue either! My flabber is well and truly gasted!

The correct word for a rectangle with equal opposite sides but not 4 equal sides (with 4 right angles) is an oblong. Which is the word I was told not to use at school, in favour of the word ‘rectangle’.

But yes, I did know that a square is a rectangle but only because my daughter taught it to me after a year 1 lesson.
