Question 10
An electronic board is divided into square lights, all of
which are initially switched off. In the first second the central light
and the four corner lights are switched on. In each subsequent
second the squares that have a common side with an already lit
square are simultaneously switched on. This process is continued
until all 169 lights are switched on. In the following second, all
lights are switched off. Now, the above operation is repeated. How
many square lights will be switched on at the 60 th second? (For
example: At the 2nd second, 12 square lights will be switched on.)

Answer: square lights
