What is the maximum number of points at which the sides of a triangle can intersect the sides of another triangle?

The wording of the question leaves room for two interpretations, but I believe the expected answer is six. Think of the "Star of David" (also known as the Magen David). See the "Web Link" at the bottom left. But that's for only one orientation. There are an infinite number of points on each line segment, so if you rotate one triangle with respect to the other, different pairs of points will be involved.

What is the maximum number of times 2 planes can intersect?
In three-dimensional space, two planes can either:* not intersect at all, * intersect in a line, * or they can be the same plane; in this case, the intersection is an entire plane.
What is the maximum number of points at which two lines can intersect each other?
If it's a line it would only be 1, but if it's a parabola, or something with a curve, it could be multiple times.
What is the scale factor used to dilate from small to big triangle?
You need numbers from the sides of the triangles. Take numbers from the corresponding (matching) sides, one number from the small triangle, and one number from the big triangle. Then divide the big number by the small number. The answer is the scale factor. Put another way, the scale factor is the number that multiplies the small triangle to create the large triangle.
Is the area of one triangle a rational number or an irrational number Explain.?
The area of a triangle can be a rational number or an irrational number depending on its dimensions.
A plane and a line intersect at most in one point?
Yes, except when the line is in the plane. In the latter case, they intersect at each point on the line (an infinite number).

false they intersect at a single point
How do you find the maiximum number in upper and lower triangle of a matrix in java?
You initially assume that the first number you want to compare is the maximum. Call this "maximum", for example. Then you iterate through all the other numbers you want to compare, and if you find a number that is larger than "maximum", copy this number to "maximum". To iterate through all the elements of a matrix, you have to use two "for" loops with indices, which are traditionally called "i" and "j". To restrict to an upper triangle for example, you need to calculate the corresponding range for the indices.
