I find very good puzzle from YouTube. It was an entrance examination of a University in Japan.

Find the number of rectangles of stairs shown here.

Chose 4 stars from 10 stars. First and second stars show the red lines' position and third and fourth stars show the blue lines' position.
These 4 lines make all rectangles you can find from green 7 stairs.
