Draw one square.
Join the midpoint of each side to the midpoint of the adjacent sides.
The resulting figure meets the requirements.

How are triangles rectangles and squares alike?
They are all polygons having their own particular properties
Which figures out of Triangles Trapezoids squares or pentagons have the same number of lines of symmetry?
triangles
Octagon can be divided into triangles by drawing how many straight lines?
yes
How many perpendicular lines does a circle have?
A circles has no perpendicular lines. Perpendicular lines are two straight lines that join forming 90 degree angles. They are found in squares, rectangles, and right-angled triangles. A circle is made by one line that is not straight but is curved. If you drew a circle, rectangle, right-angled triangle, or cross in the circle, then the circle would contain perpendicular lines. But the circle itself would have no perpendicular lines.
How many straight lines are needed to divide a regular octagon into 8 identical triangles?

Are squares and triangles polygons?
Yes they have straight lines no curves and angles.
How do you make 2 squares and 4 triangles with 8 straight lines?
See the link under related links below that says "8 Lines 2 Squares 4 Triangles"
Do triangles and squares have parallel lines?
Squares do, triangles don't.

What 2 dimensional shapes are used for a square?
A square is a 2 dimensional shape, but it can be divided into 2 or more triangles, or more smaller squares, or hexagons and triangles, or octagons and triangles, or really any rectilinear figure and triangles. If you mean what two dimensional shapes can compromise the surface of a cube, or rectangular prism, then you want squares. if you mean what 1 dimensional figures can make the perimeter of a square, then you want lines (straight lines).
What are attributes of a polygon?
A polygon is any shape with three straight lines and three angles. Shapes such as squares, rectangles, triangles, and pentagons are the most common types of polygons.
How many triangles can you get in 7 straight lines?

Make 4 triangles and 2 squares using 6 straight lines?
Draw a rectangle in the ratio of 1:2 eg sides of 5cm & 10cm. Bisect both the longer sides and join their mid points with a straight line. Draw a diagonal. This gives you 2 squares, 2 big triangles and 2 small triangle (1 in each square)
Difference between regular and irregular shapes?
Regular shapes have equal sides and angles, like squares and equilateral triangles. Irregular shapes have sides and angles of varying lengths and measurements, like rectangles and scalene triangles. Regular shapes are typically easier to calculate and work with compared to irregular shapes.
How do you draw eight triangles with 6 lines?
6 straight lines drawn inside of an octagon will divide the octagon into 8 triangles
The figure formed by two straight lines meeting at a point?
The intersection of two lines is a point. If both lines are straight the figure of four separate triangles are formed. The type of triangles are dependent on the angle of the intersection.
