When playing chess and the black king has been checked can it only move around its position that it is in?
The king is never permanently restricted to moving only within a certain area.If in check, a player must either move the king out of check, block the attack line with another piece, or capture the piece that is putting the king in check. A king cannot castle while in check. A player may also not castle if doing so would result in him being in check (or the rook used in the move to be under attack).A king who has been in check but is no longer in check has all the same capabilities as a king that has never been in check.

Can you take the chess piece that has you in check with the king?
Yes, but only if that results in you not being in check anymore. For instance, if it is the one that is checking you. When your king is in check, your only option is to stop the king from being taken. Otherwise, the game is over and you've lost. There are three ways to stop the king from being taken: move the king out of check; block the piece that has attacked the king; or -- here's the answer to your question -- capture the piece that has attacked the king. Any of your pieces that is able to do so, including the king itself, may capture the attacking piece.
