Can the King kill the Queen in check?

Because the White Bishop on c4 would take your King?

The king can't take the queen if taking the queen would place the king in check.

MikaelDGK, do you not see the bishop protecting the queen?

The Queen is protected by the bishop. If the king takes the queen (not possible but just imagine) then the bishop would take the king

Hey! Can the King kill the opposing Queen in check or not? I've been playing against my dad and he said that you can't but I'm still not sure haha, thanks!♟

Yes, as long as the queen is close enough and if the queen is not defended.

Bishop is supporting the queen

summary: the king can take the queen if the queen moves right next to him and has no pieces supporting her. of course, there would be no reason for the queen to do this unless it's a crazy sacrifice.

Yes, of course the king can take the queen in check unless the queen is protected by another piece.

There's no reference in the FIDE handbook to the Geneva Convention.

Because the rook is defending the queen, a king cannot take a piece if taking the piece would result in a check. This is a great checkmate by the queen, because again, it cannot be taken.
