You need to think outside the box on this one, but it is possible. Fold your paper up from the bottom. Place your pen on the lower layer of paper above where your paper is folded (enough space to draw your square without touching the upper layer of the fold).
Start from the top left of the square, moving across to the top right, then to the bottom right. At this stage, keep going on to the upper layer of the fold and continue in a semi-circle until you reach the bottom left of your square.
Continue to the top left so that you have your full square. Then draw diagonally to the bottom right, unfold your paper and draw from there straight across to your bottom left.
Finally, draw diagonally from the bottom left to the top right.

∙ 14y agoCan you go on the lines of the square? If you can't overlap the lines you've drawn then start in the middle. draw a line to the corner. Then draw over the side of the square. When you get to the next corner draw a line to the middle. (forming a 90 degree right angle) Draw a line from the middle to the next corner (forming another 90 degree angle) finish off by drawing along that last side of the square to the remaning corner and finsh off the X by connecting in the middle. that is IF you can trace over the square

∙ 14y agoYou can't draw a cross inside a square without lifting your hand. You can still draw a cross inside a square and a triangle, on the square, if you would like to not lift your hand.
So it basically looks like this...

...the triangle is supposed to be sticking to the square

It is possible to draw an ¨x¨ in a box without overlapping or lifting your pen many people have try it is just not possible for many people to this. YOu have to have very steady hands in order to do this.
