yes, as long as it is diagonally and in the same color.

How many squares does a 7 by 7 grid have?
7 x 7 = 49 of the smallest squares if there are 7 squares on each side. The total number of "squares" of any size (1 to 49 of the smallest squares) is 140. The number can be calculated from the formula [(n)(n+1)(2n+1)] / 6 where n is the grid size.
How many squares in a 10 by 10 grid?
There are 100 squares in a 10 by 10 grid.To discover the total number of squares in any square or rectangular grid, multiply the number of squares along two adjacent sides and you will arrive at the correct answer everytime.From Someone Else:The grid itself is a square alone; think about it, that's 1 on top of your 100.Look closer. There are actually 385 squares
What numbers are bigger than their squares?
I don't think that there is a number bigger than its square as you are timesing the number Not true. Any number between 0 and 1 is bigger than its square.
Are prime numbers more or less common than perfect squares?
Any number squared except 0 is a perfect square so it follows that prime numbers are less common than perfect squares.
How many lateral faces do pyramids have?
Three or more, as many as the number of sides of the base. Pyramids can have base that are triangles, squares rectangles, or any planar polygon.
In chess what role does the bishop play?
The bishop can move any number of squares diagonally
Which piece can move on black and whiegt square in chess?
The king - can move one square in any direction (except when castling) The queen - can move any number of squares in a straight line. The rook - can move any number of squares vertically or horizontally The Bishop - can move any number of squares diagonally The Knight - moves either one square vertically and two squares horizontally - or - one square horizontally and two squares vertically. Only the Bishop remains on the same coloured square regardless of the number of squares moved. All other pieces can land on a white or black square.
Can a queen in chess move move more than 1 space?
Yes, at least if she can move freely. There are always 14 moves in horizontal and vertical directions regardless of the location she stands. (This is similar to a rook.) For diagonal moves we think of a Bishop; standing on the edge or one of the corners it will cover 7 squares diagonally. Now think the chessboard as it comprises concentric squares, or "contours". On the outmost contour, i.e. edge of the board the bishop covers 7 squares. On the next inner contour the bishop covers 9 squares; on the next inner contour it covers 11 squares. And finally on the innermost contour, that is either of the 4 centre squares the bishop can cover a maximum of 13 square. As Queen = Rook + Bishop, she can cover either 21, 23, 25, or 27 squares depending on the "contour" where she stands.
What is the function of the bishop in chess?
A bishop in Chess can move diagonally in any direction as the path is not obstructed by another piece.
Are dolphins in whale shogi limited to two-space diagonal movement from the back rank?
I have wondered this myself. The rules state the dolphin can move any number of squares as a bishop if it is in the last rank. Zillions of games programmed the game to only cover two squares backward diagonally. This is a mistake based on the diagram in Wikipedia. The diagram shows only two squares but that indicates a ranging move. Note that the Paulowitch variation is a great improvement on the game. In this variation it is my favorite game at this time.
What is a castle in a board game?
A castle is a chess piece that can move any number of squares vertically or horizontally. It is also called a rook.
What is the difference between European and American checkers?
That Europeans call the king a queen is one difference between an American and a European game of checkers. That Europeans allow their queen to move - like the bishop in chess - over any number of unoccupied squares along the same diagonal is a second difference. That Europeans tend to use a board of 100, not 64, squares is a third difference.
Which piece in chess can only move diagonally?
The bishop is the only chess piece that exclusively moves in a diagonal direction. It (the bishop) moves "on a slant" or it does not move. It's that simple.The bishop can sometimes be thought of as the "opposite" of the rook, as the rook can only move across ranks or along files, meaning horizontally or vertically.Lastly, the bishop can never attack a square of a color it is not on, and for obvious reasons. It is also obvious that a player has two bishops, and each is confined to only one color of squares. This is why the bishop, in spite of its ability to reach long distances across an open board, has a bit less value than a rook. The rook can reach long distances across an open board, too, but it is not confined to a color like the bishop. Again, for obvious reasons.
In chess can the king or queen go backwards?
Yes, A knight movement is 2 up and 1 over, or 1 up and 2 over. It is allowed to move in this pattern in any direction. =========================== The only chess piece that is not allowed to move backward is the pawn.
How do you move three lines from four squares to make three squares of equal size?
Is this question supposed to have 12 toothpicks to make 4 squares and then move 3 toothpicks to make 3 equal sized squares? Answer depends on the restrictions. Just move 3 sticks from any square to form a straight vertical or horizontal line up of squares is one option if there is no restrictions other than the three resulting squares are equal sizes.
How can I divide a square with an area of 144 square inches into 12 equal sized squares if it is possible?
You cannot. If you are dividing any square into equal sized squares, then the number of these smaller squares must be a square number.
What are the different chess pieces?
There is a total of 6 pieces on a chess board, they all have the same role, to aid in defeating the other players' pieces. However they move differently from one another, the pawn can move 2 squares forward on its first go and 1 on any turn after that. The rook may move horizontally and vertically, the knight can move forward either 1 or 2 squares and left 1 or 2 squares, the bishop moves diagonally, the queen can move diagonally, horizontally and vertically. The king may only move to squares surrounding it.
