How do you draw a square with 2 squares inside of each other without lifting up your pencil or without overlaping?

There are a number of possible configurations for the drawing and the question does not make clear which is intended. One possibility is that of a large square which contains a medium sized square whose vertices are at the midpoints of the sides of the larger square and which, in turn, contains a smaller square defined in the same way.
One way to draw this figure would be to start at the midpoint of a side of the largest square and go all the way round it. Then move on to the middle square and draw only half of one side. Move to the smallest square and go all round it. Then continue and complete the middle square.

How can you tell the value of a radical is a rational number?
If the number inside the radical is a perfect square or a ratio of perfect squares.
How many 1 meter squares fit inside a square that has an area of 9 square meters?
9 *snicker* trick question.
If a square box has sixteen squares inside how many squares are there?
17 squares. 1 of size 4x4, 4 of size 3x3, 9 of size 2x2, 16 of size 1x1 Total 30 but that depends on a particular interpretation of the question (16 squares arranged in a 4x4 group). If the 16 are arranged in a row, then they might be regarded as a rectangle and you only have 1 square (the box). If you define the box to be a real 3 dimensional box then the box itself has 6 or 5 squares depending on if it has a lid or not.
When finding the perimeter of a figure on a grid why do you not count the spaces inside the grid?
That's because "perimeter" means the distance around something - not the spaces inside. If you count squares inside a figure, you are finding the AREA, not the PERIMETER.
How do you find the area of a circle without using pi?
You cannot get an accurate measure of the area without pi. If you are interested in an approximation, you could divide the circle up into tiny squares of some fixed area (their size would depend on how big the original circle was). Then count the number of squares where half or more is inside the circle and multiply by the area of each square. That will give you an estimate of the area of the circle. You could make an approximation with inscribed and circumscribed polygons (which are the sum of a number of isosceles triangles) and average the two areas, increasing the number of sides of the polygons to increase accuracy (that is the way the early Greek mathematicians did it). Much easier and quicker to use pi!
How do you make a x inside a box without lifting your pen?
use a pencil
How many squares are inside a circle?
None unless you draw some inside. ^ Terrible answer: There can be many different numbers of squares inside a circle. As the size of the squares goes to zero, the number of squares goes to infinity.
How do you find the are of a figure?
You count the inside squares of the figure.

If you use Toothpicks to make four squares move only two so that two squares remain and a toothpick must be a part of a square?
Old one. Make a square out of four squares, then remove two adjacent inside toothpicks. This leaves a large square with a small square inside.
How do you find area without formulas?
You measure how many units will fit inside of the area. For example, if you own a plot of land and want to know the area in square feet, construct a lot of squares that are one foot square. Then put as many of those square as will fit into the plot without any overlapping or any gaps. Count the number of squares that fit into the plot.
Why are squares shown inside rectangles and parallelograms?
usually its for marking a right angle
4 circles are drawn inside a big circle of radius 10 cm in such a way that there is no overlaping and all 4 are equal in size what is the radius of the largest circle that you can draw in the middle?
The radius of the largest circle you can fit is 2.72cm
How do you make two non touching squares while only moving 8 sticks in a 24 matchstick game?
Remove all of the inside sticks... Try this (and please ignore the dots... I couldn't get it to space properly without them): ___ ___ ___ |.... |.... |.... | ___ ___ ___ |.... |.... |.... | ___ ___ ___ |.... |.... |.... | ___ ___ ___ Changes to ___ ___ ___ |................. | .......___ |.... |.... |.... | .......___ |................. | ___ ___ ___ if you take out the 8 lines along the inside track: which makes two squares that don't touch each other.
How do you make 3 squares from 2 one inside the other in 4 moves?
