Each house has to connect to each dot once, one line per house to dot, NO LINES CAN INTERSECT. Feel free to draw a better version using paint/photoshop.
EDIT: also the lines can curve/corner, they are not allowed to cross over themselves though.

yea but I tred even with curved/cornered lines, anyways, my civics teacher had this on the board and wanted to see if anyone could figure it out, she didnt know if it was possible or not, so I came here after school to see if it is. I guess it isn't lol

What if the lines are on different planes (3D)?

I don't believe it's possible...
*runs off to check formula*
Yep, if this is the correct formula, it doesn't work...
Ta-ta for now!

nothin to do with the question, but I have an interesting trick.

close left eye. focus right eye on furthest left dot, wit head in middle of screen, at about 30 cm from the screen, you'll notice the dot on the right disappear

SuPuzzle right? There's a solution but it requires cheating. There is no mathematical solution to it.
