Likewise, how many lines can go through 4 collinear points?
one line
Likewise, how many lines can be drawn 3 distinct points? Given three distinct points A, B and C in a plane, they can either be collinear or non collinear. If they are collinear, then there can be only one line joining them. If they are non collinear, then there can be three lines joining them. For example, if we have three distinct non collinear points P, Q and R.
Regarding this, how many lines are determined by distinct points?
So, we get that one line can be drawn by joining points A and B, another line can be formed by joining points B and C and similarly one more line can be drawn by joining points A and C. So, we can name the lines as AB, BC and AC. Hence, we get that only three lines are possible with the help of three distinct points.
How many lines can 4 non-collinear points have?
Answer: Six is the correct ans.
