QUESTION: 14

How many quadrilateral can be formed from 25 points out of which 7 are collinear
Solution:

otal number of quadrilateral combination possible if none of the points are collinear = 25C4 = 12650

If we form a geometry by joining any three points out of seven collinear points and one point from 18 non collinear points, it will give us a triangle instead of quadrilateral. So we have to eliminate number of combinations which can be formed in this way, which is 7C3 x 18C1 = 35 x 18 = 630

We also can't form quadrilateral if we choose all four vertices of quadrilateral to be any 4 points from 7 collinear points. It will come out to be a straight line. So we have to eliminate such combinations also. Which is 7C4 = 35

So net number of possible quadrilaterals = 12650 - 630 - 35 = 11985
