Add 4 matchsticks to divide the square
this image is solution .first it is drawn through doodle buddy app not professionally made so u understand it is not perfect drawing .i am not a artist.
you can do other figures by overlapping matchsticks.u for example first image middle matchstick from the added ones is actually an overlap of 2 matchsticks
the answer is the first solution but with the matchsticks in the middle side by side (not one on top of the other), thus forming two separate rectangles
But, “divide the square” is our requirement,
Here, square is not divided into 2 pieces,
But, yes if we’ll see from top, it’ll look like that… Nice One
Since, the figure in the question was from top view, so I thought this solution might be possible.
Anyways, Thank you for the suggestion.
you add 4 matchsticks in the middle II making two separate rectangles
