Open in App
Solution
The three parallel lines do not intersect. Each transversal intersects with the three parallel lines. Also the transversals need not be parallel. So, they can intersect with each other.
Therefore, the number of points of intersection = 3×2+1=7
The three parallel lines do not intersect. Each transversal intersects with the three parallel lines. Also the transversals need not be parallel. So, they can intersect with each other.
