उत्तर
To draw a line, two points are needed.
There are 10 points in a plane such that no three of them are collinear.
Hence, the number of lines formed 10C2
= `(10!)/((10 - 2)!2!)`
= `(10!)/(2!8!)`
= `(10 xx 9xx8!)/(2xx1xx8!)`
= 5 × 9
= 45
45 straight lines are obtained if no three points are collinear.
