If the two lines are actually "on top of each other", they can have infinitely many points in common. If they are parallel, they have no points in common. If they are perpendicular, they have one point in common.

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.

How many straight lines can be formed by connecting any 2 of the 6 non-collinear points?

15 Consider one of the points. Call it point A. You can draw one line containing A through each of the other five lines (i.e., there are five lines that contain both A and another of the five points). Now, consider another of the points -- call it B. Excluiding the line that contains A and B, there are four lines that can be drawn containing B and one of the other four points. Continue this process for all the points. You get 5+4+3+2+1=15 lines. In general, if you have n non-collinear points, there are n+(n-1)+(n-2)+...+2+1=n*(n+1)/2 lines that can be drawn through any two of those points.


Which type of lines pass through points (-2 2) (2 2) and (-2 -2) (2 -2) on a grid?

They are opposite parallel lines with points of (-2, 2) (2, 2) and (-2, -2) (2, -2)
