Question

Given four distinct points in a plane. How many maximum lines can be drawn through them?

• A. $6$
• B. $7$
• C. $10$
• D. $4$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $6$

We have $4$ distinct point in a plane.

Now to find maximum no. of lines that can be drawn, no $3$ points should be collinear.

Now, a line can be drawn if we choose any two points of the given points and join them.

So, max number of lines ${=}^4{C}_2=\frac{4\times 3}{2}=6$
