Solution
156
We need at least three points to draw a circle that passes through them.
Now, number of circles formed out of 11 points by taking three points at a time = 11C3 = 165
Number of circles formed out of 5 points by taking three points at a time = 5C3 = 10
It is given that 5 points lie on one circle.
