Check if the side lengths are the same.

[Konstantin2]

All it's sides have equal length.

that i know but how to do the coding for that

[Konstantin2]

if (width==height) cout << "square\n";
How do you define your rectangle?

[ostar2]

Try this:

#include <iostream>
int main{
std::cout << ("Enter side 1: ") << std:endl;
std::cin >> s1;
std::cout << ("Enter side 2: ") << std:endl;
std::cin >> s2;
std::cout << ("Enter side 3: ") << std:endl;
std::cin >> s3;
std::cout << ("Enter side 4: ") << std:endl;
std::cin >> s4;
if((s1 | s2) ==  ( s3 | s4)) //Check a pair of sides are congruent.
{
std::cout << ("It's a square!") << std::endl;
}
else
{
std::cout << ("It's a rectangle!") << std::endl;
}
return(0);
}

A square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not necessary a square.

What kind of rectangle?
Are you using a 2D graphic engine?
Or is it just a console app?
And do you know the coordinates of the rectangle and the width/height of it?
