6.3.6 Rectangles and Squares......................................................................

A rectangle is a geometric figure made of four sides that compose four right angles. Like

the line, to draw a rectangle, you must define where it starts and where it ends. This can

be illustrated as follows:

The drawing of a rectangle typically starts from a point defined as (X1, Y1) and ends at

another point (X2, Y2).

To draw a rectangle, you can use the CDC::Rectangle() method. Its syntax is:

BOOL Rectangle(int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2);
