Explanation:
When two lines intersect, they form a point. Therefore, the first line can intersect the other three lines at three points each, resulting in a total of 9 points of intersection. However, when we add the second line, it can only intersect the remaining two lines at two points each, resulting in a total of 4 additional points of intersection. Similarly, the third line can only intersect the remaining one line at one point, resulting in only one additional point of intersection. Therefore, the maximum number of points of intersection is 9 + 4 + 1 = 14. However, each point of intersection is counted twice (once for each line), so we need to divide by 2 to get the total number of distinct points of intersection. Therefore, the answer is (9 + 4 + 1) / 2 = 7.
