Q:

In a Plane there are 37 straight lines, of which 13 pass through the point A and 11 pass through the point B. Besides, no three lines pass through one point, no lines passes through both points A and B , and no two are parallel. Find the number of points of intersection of the straight lines.

A) 525 B) 535
C) 545 D) 555
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 535

Explanation:

The number of points of intersection of 37 lines is C237. But 13 straight lines out of the given 37 straight lines pass through the same point A.

 

Therefore instead of getting C213 points, we get only one point A. Similarly 11 straight lines out of the given 37 straight lines intersect at point B. Therefore instead of getting C211 points, we get only one point B.

 

 Hence the number of intersection points of the lines is C237-C213-C211 +2 = 535
