It is impossible to draw a “X” inside a box without lifting the pen or crossing any previously written lines. However, if a triangle is added to the top, it is entirely feasible.

To create this shape, begin by drawing a vertical line toward the paper’s top. Next, draw a diagonal line down and to the right. Continue the line vertically toward the top of the page from that point. You should now have drawn a “N” form.

Continue your motion by drawing the horizontal line to the left. This secures the box’s lid. From the upper left corner of the box, where the pen should be, draw a diagonal line to the upper right until you reach the box’s centre. Then, proceed diagonally downward and to the right to create the box’s roof.

Next, draw a diagonal line down and to the left. This completes the “X” shape at the box’s centre. Lastly, draw the bottom of the “home” you have made, as you have now created a shape that enables you to insert a “X” inside a box without lifting the pen from the page or utilising previously drawn lines.
