उत्तर

The number of triangles that are formed by choosing the vertices from a set of 12 points, seven of which lie on the same line is 185.

Explanation:

Total number of triangles formed from 12 points taking 3 at a time = 12C3

But given that out of 12 points, 7 are collinear

So, these seven points will form no triangle.

∴ The required number of triangles = 12C37C3

= `(12!)/(3!  9!) - (7!)/(3!4!)`

= `(12 xx 11 xx 10 xx 9!)/(3 xx 2 xx 1 xx 9!) - (7 xx 6 xx 5 xx 4!)/(3 xx 2 xx 1 xx 4!)`

= `(12 xx 11 xx 10)/(3 xx 2) - (7 xx 6 xx 5)/(3 xx 2)`

= 220 – 35

= 185
