(i) Yes, a rectangular number can be a square number.
Reason: Yes, a rectangular number can be a square number if it can also be arranged in a square pattern.
For example, 36 can be arranged as 6 × 6, so it is a square number. It can also be arranged as 4 × 9 or 3 × 12, so it is also a rectangular number.
(ii) Yes, a triangular number can be a square number.
Reason: Some numbers are both triangular and square. For example, 1 is both the 1st triangular number and the 1st square number. Similarly, 36 is both a triangular number (8th triangular number = = 36) and a square number (62 = 36).
