You can put this solution on YOUR website! Not quite true - the diagonals of a square (which is technically a rectangle) meet at 90 deg angles.
For rectangles that are not squares, you can assume (for sake of contradiction) that the diagonals do meet at 90 deg angles. Try to form some sort of contradiction. An example of a contradiction could be that the fact implies the rectangle is a square.
