"Rx" affects the top and bottom side radii, while "Ry" affects the left and right side radii. There are two radius dimensions which can be set either together or independently these separate dimensions affect the horizontal or vertical "sides" of each corner. Rectangles also have round corner radius handles at the top right to set the radius of the corners. Dragging the resize handles resizes the rectangle's width and height simultaneously.
