In a plane there are 37 straight lines of which 13 pass through point \(A\) and 11 pass through the point \(B\). Moreover, no three lines (apart from the lines passing through \(A\) and \(B\) ) pass through same point and no two are parallel. What is the number of points of intersection of the straight lines?

  1. A \({ }^{37} \mathrm{C}_2\)
  2. B \({ }^{37} \mathrm{C}_2-{ }^{13} \mathrm{C}_2-{ }^{11} \mathrm{C}_2\)
  3. C \({ }^{37} C_2-{ }^{13} C_2-{ }^{11} C_2+2\)
  4. D \({ }^{37} C_2-2\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \({ }^{37} C_2-{ }^{13} C_2-{ }^{11} C_2+2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Number of selection of two lines \(={ }^{37} C_2\) Number of selection of two lines from lines which are concurrent at point \(A={ }^{13} C_2\) Number of selection of two lines from lines which are concurrent at point \(B={ }^{11} C_2\) \(\therefore\) Total number of points of…
