The key to this (old) puzzle is to realize that the lines don't have to end on a dot, they can be extended beyond the end of the row or column.
If the dots are numbered
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
1) Start with dot #9 - draw a line through #5 to #1
2) From #1, draw a line through #2 to # 3 and then continue the line far enough out to be able to draw the next line
3) Draw a line from the end of the previous line through # 6 and #8, ending the line under #7.
4) Draw a line from the end of the previous line through # 7 and #4 back up to #1
See the diagram below (it's not perfect, but you should be able to follow the idea)

How do you connect 12 dots with 5 straight lines and end where you begin?
Draw a line from one dot in the center to the other four dots. Or, draw a straight line. Place dots at either end of the line, and place dots in the center of the line.
How do you join six dots together with just four lines?
To join six dots with four straight lines, you can arrange the dots in a specific pattern, such as forming a hexagon or two rows of three. Start by drawing a line that connects three dots in one row, then extend the line to connect to a dot in the second row. Continue by drawing lines that cross back to connect the remaining dots, ensuring that each line is drawn in a way that doesn't lift your pencil off the paper. This creates a continuous path that links all six dots using only four lines.

Are there any cheats for the game dots?
Assuming you are referring to the game where you connect dots with lines, while trying complete the least amount of squares, there are no cheats. The easiest way to play is to scan the dots to see if there are three lines for every group of four dots, and go from there!

What is the answer to 9 dot in 4 strait lines?
The solution to connecting nine dots with four straight lines without lifting your pen involves extending the lines beyond the confines of the square formed by the dots. By starting from one of the outer dots, you can create lines that extend outwards and intersect with other dots, effectively connecting all nine in a continuous path. This approach emphasizes thinking outside the box, both literally and figuratively.
