Can you find 6 different ways to cut a square into 4 equal parts?
yes
Can you divide a square in 2 equal parts in 9 different ways?
Yes you can, but you have to use zig zag lines. Using straight lines there are only four ways to divide a square into two equal parts (along the lines of symmetry).
How do you divide a square into equal parts in many ways?
with a knife... lol... sorry couldn't help it
Can a square be divided into 2 equal parts in more than 4 ways?
There are an infinite number of points on two adjacent sides of a square which can be joined to the diagonally opposite point, so there is an infinite number of ways of halving a square.
Can you draw 9 different ways to cut a square into 2 equal parts?
It can be done easily in an infinite number of ways. Select any point on the perimeter of the square and cut from there, through the centre of the square, to the opposite perimeter. All in a straight line.
