Answer:

The diagonals intersect each other

Explanation:

One of the distinguishing features of triangles is the congruency of the diagonals. The diagonals are bisected into two. Each perpendicular bisector gives a segment of the diagonal that is equal to the other.

Hello!

A rectangle is defined as having 4 right angles and that the opposite sides are both congruent and parallel to each other. Also, if two numbers are equal, their square roots are equal as well.

I hope this helped you! :)
