    I perceive that there are no squares because there are no equal sides. Only rectangles in this puzzle.

    My only disclaimer is I'm looking at it on my phone and it may be distorted but somehow I don't think so.:D

    there are 50 if those are supposed to be equal line segments. If they are not equal in length as they appear, then it would be zero.

    I replied earlier with 37. And when I measured the lines on my PC, none were the same length. Glad someone got it right. Great Puzzle!
