This question is not complete. The correct scenario begins with 4 dots arranged in a square. The challenge is as follows: # Draw three straight line. # You cannot lift your pencil. # You can not cross over any lines. # You must end on the same dot you start with. The solution is to simply think outside the box. Draw a large triangle. Start with your pencil on a single dot (We'll use the bottom left for this example). Draw a straight line to the right that extends past the dot on the bottom right. Then draw from that point diagonally towards the top left, going through the dot at the top right, and ending directly above the two left dots. Finally draw a line straight down, going through the top left and ending at the bottom right.
To connect the 9 dots with only 4 straight lines, you need to think outside the conventional boundaries of the square formed by the dots. Start from one of the outer dots and draw a line that extends beyond the square, allowing you to connect dots in a diagonal manner. By connecting the dots in this way, you can complete the task without lifting your pen and while adhering to the limit of 4 lines. This exercise demonstrates the importance of creative problem-solving.
To connect 9 dots with 4 lines, you must think outside the box. The key is to draw lines that extend beyond the boundaries of the dots. Start by drawing a line that goes through the first three dots in an L shape, then continue the line outside the dots to connect the remaining dots. This unconventional approach allows you to connect all 9 dots with just 4 lines.
Go outside the box. The 45 degree angles pick up the dots below the corners, but you have to extend the other lines beyond the figure formed by the dots.
Put the dots in a general square outline. But make one side have 4 dots and the others have 3. Then go around the outline of the square.

To separate 10 dots with 4 lines, you can create a square with 4 dots at the corners and one dot in the center. This arrangement allows each line to intersect with at least 2 dots, effectively separating all 10 dots.
a star drawn with five lines will give you 10 dots on 5 lines with only 4 dots on each line. (or) simply draw a pentagon and put a cap ( a inverted 'V') on all sides.

You start by drawing a circle then draw 3+ dots on the circled edge, next connect all the dots with each other but don't go over the same line twice. for a 4 dotted circle you should end up with 6 lines altogether and with 5 you should have 10 lines altogether also 6-15 7=21 10=45 11=55 12=66
Write down 4 rows of 3 dots or 3 rows of 4 dots.
If this is the one where the dots are in a square 3 x 3, and every dot must be connected by a straight line to every other dot, I do not think it can be done.
