There are $n$ straight lines in a plane,no two of which are parallel and no three pass through the same point. Their points of intersection are joined. Then the number of fresh lines thus obtained is

  • A
    $\frac{n(n - 1)(n - 2)}{8}$
  • B
    $\frac{n(n - 1)(n - 2)(n - 3)}{6}$
  • C
    $\frac{n(n - 1)(n - 2)(n - 3)}{8}$
  • D
    None of these

How many chords can be drawn through $21$ points on a circle?

In a plane,there are $37$ straight lines,of which $13$ pass through point $A$ and $11$ pass through point $B$. Moreover,no three lines (apart from the lines passing through $A$ and $B$) pass through the same point,and no two lines are parallel. What is the number of points of intersection of the straight lines?

Out of $30$ points in a plane,$8$ of them are collinear. The number of straight lines that can be formed by joining these points is:
