There are two parallel lines L1 and I2 ...

There are two parallel lines `L_1 and I_2` in a plane `I_1` contains mdifferent points nand lcontains n different points `A_1,A_2,.........,A_m and I_2` contains n different points `B_1,B_2,......B_n`. How many triangles are possible with thesevertices?

Text Solution

The correct Answer is:
`"^(m+n)C_(3)-"^(m)C_(3)-"^(n)C_(3)` or`"^(m)C_(2)"^(n)C_(1)+"^(m)C_(1)"^(n)C_(2)`

The straight lines I_(1),I_(2),I_(3) are paralled and lie in the same plane. A total number of m point are taken on I_(1),n points on I_(2) , k points on I_(3) . The maximum number of triangles formed with vertices at these points are

We know that, if a_1, a_2, ..., a_n are in H.P. then 1/a_1,1/a_2,.....,1/a_n are in A.P. and vice versa. If a_1, a_2, ..., a_n are in A.P. with common difference d, then for any b (>0), the numbers b^(a_1),b^(a_2),b^9a_3),........,b^(a_n) are in G.P. with common ratio b^d. If a_1, a_2, ..., a_n are positive and in G.P. with common ration, then for any base b (b> 0), log_b a_1 , log_b a_2,...., log_b a_n are in A.P. with common difference logor.If x, y, z are respectively the pth, qth and the rth terms of an A.P., as well as of a G.P., then x^(z-x),z^(x-y) is equal to
