the polygon because a square is a rectangle with all four sides equal so obviously a rectangle is a square which leaves you with the polygon that has no right angle what so ever!

b) Rectangle. A rectangle is not a square but a square is a rectangle. A rectangle must have four sides and four right angles. (or four sides with two pairs of parallel sides) A square is a rectangle with equal side lengths. Therefore a rectangle is not a square, but a square is a rectangle.
