Question 1 of 5
1. Question
There are 14 points in a plane, out OF which 4 are collinear. Find the number of triangles made by these points.
Correct
Answer: b
The required number of triangles = nC3 – mC3
Here, n = 14 , m = 4
= 14C3 – 4C3
= (14* 13 *12* 11!)/(3! *11!) – (4!/(3!*1!)
=[(14 *13 *12)/6 ] – (4/1)
= 14 *26 – 4= 364 – 4=360
Incorrect
Answer: b
The required number of triangles = nC3 – mC3
Here, n = 14 , m = 4
= 14C3 – 4C3
= (14* 13 *12* 11!)/(3! *11!) – (4!/(3!*1!)
=[(14 *13 *12)/6 ] – (4/1)
= 14 *26 – 4= 364 – 4=360

Question 2 of 5
2. Question
There are 10 points in a plane, out of which 5 are collinear. Find the number of straight lines formed by joining them.
Correct
Answer : a
= nC2 – Mc2 +1
Here, n = 10, m = 5
=10C2 – 5C2 + 1 = 45 -10 +1=36
Incorrect
Answer : a
= nC2 – Mc2 +1
Here, n = 10, m = 5
=10C2 – 5C2 + 1 = 45 -10 +1=36

Question 3 of 5
3. Question
Find the number of diagonals formed hexagon.
Correct
Answer : d
Hexagon has 6 sides.
N = 6
∴Required number of diagonals =n C2 –n
=6 C2-6
(6!)/2!(6-2)! – 6
= [6!/(2!4!)] – 6
[(6* 5 *4!)/(2* 4!)] – 6 = 15 – 6 = 9
Incorrect
Answer : d
Hexagon has 6 sides.
N = 6
∴Required number of diagonals =n C2 –n
=6 C2-6
(6!)/2!(6-2)! – 6
= [6!/(2!4!)] – 6
[(6* 5 *4!)/(2* 4!)] – 6 = 15 – 6 = 9

Question 4 of 5
4. Question
In how many different ways, 5 boys and 5 girls can sit on a circular table, so that the boys and girls are alternate?
Correct
Answer : a
After fixing up one boy on the table, the remaining can be arranged in ways, but boys and girls have to be alternate. There will be 5 places, one place each between two boys. These 5 places can be filled by
5 girls in 5! ways.
Hence, by the principle of multiplication, the required number of ways= 4 X5! = 2880

They can be seated in (21-1) ways=factorial 20 ways.
Incorrect
Answer : c
Total persons on the circular table = 20 guests + 1 host = 21
They can be seated in (21-1) ways=factorial 20 ways.
