Solution

we have 4 circles and 4 straight line
(1) line and line intersections :-
two line can intersects at 1 point
4 lines maximum intersection = 4C2.1=6

(2) line and circle intersections:-
line and circle can intersects at 2 point.
4 lines and 4 circles maximum intersection = 4C1.4C1.2=32

(3) circles and circle intersections :
Two circles can intersects at most 2 points
4 circles maximum intersection = 4C2.2=12
total no. of maximum intersection= 6+32+12=50.
