All rectangles are squares, but not all squares are rectangles.

Dementia is a condition that causes memory loss. Alzheimer’s is a type of dementia. Just like a square can have 100’s of different sizes, one being a rectangle. There are many types of dementia, just one of them is Alzheimer’s.

Alzheimer’s is the rectangle.
