What if the square in the middle is not parallel? Is it a bit slanted instead?

What happens if the inner square and the outer square are concentric but their sides are not parallel?

Look at my mistake – I mistook the perimeter of the small square in the middle for its area! Failing to get into university is probably caused by something like this. ;P;P

As long as the sides of the two squares are parallel, no auxiliary lines are needed; in all cases it’s 3*8
