उत्तर

Total number of points = 18

Out of 18 numbers, 5 are collinear and we get a straight line by joining any two points.

∴ Total number of straight-line formed by joining 2 points out of 18 points = 18C2.

Number of straight lines formed by joining 2 points out of 5 points = 5C2

But 5 points are collinear and we get only one line when they are joined pairwise.

So, the required number of straight lines are

= 18C2 – 5C2 + 1

= `(18 * 17)/(2*1) - (5*4)/(2*1) + 1`

= 153 – 10 + 1

= 144

Hence, the total number of straight lines = 144.T
