Based on statement 1. it can either be a rhombus or a square, but it sure is not a rectangle, therefore 1. is supposed to be sufficient as well, right? Since we're able to answer the question: is ABCD a rectangle?
How sure are you that it is surely not a rectangle while evaluating statement 1??
If you can answer whether square is a rectangle or not, you would get the answer you are seeking.

Isn't the answer C?

Statement 1 - a rectangle has opposite sides equal but this property is also shared by a parallelogram. So unless we know what the angles are, we won't be able to conclude that it is a rectangle. Insufficient.

Statement 2 - all internal angles are equal is a property of a rectangle and a square so we cannot conclude that this is a rectangle as well unless we know the sides. Insufficient.

Combining both statements, we can conclude that the quadrilateral is NOT a rectangle (it's a square). Sufficient.

Do check my earlier post with explanation.
With St. 2 you are missing something and hope that post helps. Does sides's length really matter in this question?? Think it over.!!!

Thank you! I think I get it now. Since all angles are equal then opposite sides are also equal. Hence, the statement is sufficient.
