No.
In plane geometry, two lines can intersect at at most one point. This means that for n points, the maximum number of intersections is limited by the number of pairs of lines.
For lines a,b,c,d, there are six pairs: (a,b), (a,c), (a,d), (b,c), (b,d), (c,d). So four lines can have at most six intersections.
Yes it can
The greatest number of intersection points with just four lines is 6.
The greatest number is six.
- If you're working on a single sheet of paper (2-D), then you can draw four lines that intersect in 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 points. - If in 3-D space, then you can also draw four lines that don't intersect at all.
Being 'perpendicular' would require the lines to be at 'right angles' to each other... So, if working in a 2-dimensional setting, the joining of 3 perpendicular lines would not be possible. If working in a 3-dimensional setting, the answer would be 12. Four from the intersection of the 1st and 2nd lines, four from where the 3rd line intersects initially, and four from where the 3rd line leaves the intersection.

No, four lines can can have 6 total intersections. They would be Ab, Ac, Ad, Bc, Bd, and Cd

6! Thank you to ChaCha Answers. Wiki sucks, compared to ChaCha. :) -Geometry Student from TX
you cross two lines like a tepee, then run a line through the bottom of the tepee, then make a line go slanted through the bottom line then one tepee side, then the other
They are four lines that coincide pairwise in at least four distinct points.
The intersection of two lines is a point. If both lines are straight the figure of four separate triangles are formed. The type of triangles are dependent on the angle of the intersection.
