How many common points for intersection of four lines?
- 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.
What is the maximum number of points of intersection when two circles and five straight lines intersect each other?
When two circles intersect, they can create a maximum of 2 intersection points. Each straight line can intersect with each of the two circles at a maximum of 2 points, contributing 10 points from the lines and circles. Additionally, the five straight lines can intersect each other, yielding a maximum of ( \binom{5}{2} = 10 ) intersection points. Therefore, the total maximum points of intersection are ( 2 + 10 + 10 = 22 ).
What is the number of points equidistant from two intersecting lines and 2 centimeters from the point of intersection?
2
What is the greatest possible number of points of intersection for 100 lines?
100*99/2 = 4950
How do you verify that a triangle is isosceles?
The step to verify an isosceles triangle is: 1) Find the intersection points of the lines. 2) Find the distance for each intersection points. 3) If 2 of the distance are the same then it is an isosceles triangle.
