Best Answer

Greatest possible number of intersections for following lines:

1(line(s)) = 0 (intersections)

2= 1

3= 1+2

4= 1+2+3

5= 1+2+3+4

.

.

.

.

8=1+2+3+4+5+6+7= 28

Every time you add a line, you are able to create 1 more maximum intersection than the previous state. You can add up until 'number of lines - (minus) 1'.
