BMAD Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 Prem was doing his homework. With a radius of 20cm he drew a circle. He then drew 7 lines inside the circle with the help of a foot-rule. Can you tell in how many minimum and maximum divisions was the circle divided by these lines? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 vistaptb Posted May 20, 2013 Report Share Posted May 20, 2013 Minimum is 8, assuming none of the lines are identical Maximum is 29 (first line adds 1 part by crossing no lines, second line adds 2 parts by crossing one line, third line adds 3 parts by crossing two lines, etc.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
