how do u draw a square using three lines?

Answer 1

actually i did one with only one line when i was six!

Answer 2

you never say use 3 straight lines. so actually you can draw with just one line. start from one corner, then draw a square using a pen. without lifting up the pen, end at the point u start. There you have it, a square drawn with 1 line. For 3 lines. just draw 2 side with 2 line and the last two side use 1 line.

Answer 3

This is a stupid question. If u ask for square of a number u can write 4 using 3 lines. Or the one line in the square should be invisible.

Answer 4

This is impossible to do in planar geometry, such as on a flat piece of paper. Thus, the answer only exists in a non-planar topologies. If you allow this, then the answers are infinite in number, and can even be done with just a single line, given sufficient "warping" of the topology.

For example, one solution is: On the surface of a cylinder, draw two parallel lines across the circumference, then a single line upon its length. This solution will be a square when the two parallel line are exactly the same distance apart as the circumference of the cylinder. (You can "draw" this by rolling your paper into a cylindrical shape.)

Answer 5

use 2 pieces of paper and u can do it with only two lines!!! lol... or four pieces and u can do it with only one
if u over lap the pages and draw a line that is one line but runs across the two pages u get two separate lines
then using the same pages again draw a line in the same way only at a right angle to the first line making sure it ends up as a right angle on the second sheet too
then u rotate the pages.. trim them a bit.. from end to end of the lines.. not the corner bit... the open lines... and then fit them together!! one square.. two lines!! im smarter than them.. they all had 2 use 3 lines lol.. u can just do it easier by only over lapping one page and then drawing on ur other two free lines.. but my way is more fun!

Answer 6

One way would be to draw an equilateral triangle with the three lines, but put that triangle on an architect's drawing of a commons area in a housing development, and call that area "Village Square". Even though it is a triangle, it would then be a "Square" in the "Piazza" sense of the term.

Answer 7

look for a piece of paper with a line already drawn on it, and then draw the other three lines to complete the square.

Answer 8

draw one side with one line. draw the second side with the second line. use the third line to complete the square.

Answer 9

i really hope u have a logical answer for this question. quite an interesting question and really got me thinking.

I would say, 2 straight line and a right angled line, would form a square.

Pretty much like this:
_
Ll

Answer 10

Two straight lines, One continuous line elongated on a 90 degree angle.

Answer 11

Use 3 lines to write the number 4.
4 is a square.

Works with either Arabic or Roman numerals.
