Assertion: If each of m points on one straight line be joined to each of n points on the other straight line terminated by the points, then number of points of intersection of these lines excluding the points on the given lines is `(mn(m-1)(n-1))/2` Reason: Two points on one line and two points on other line gives one such point of intersection. (A) Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A (B) Both A and R are true R is not the correct explanation of A (C) A is true but R is false. (D) A is false but R is true.

Assertion: Number of triangles formed by n concurrent lines and a line which is parallel to one of the n concurrent lines is "^(n-1)C_2. Reason: One and only one triangle is formed by three lines out of which 2 are concurrent and third line is not passing through the point of intersection of the concurrent lines and not parallel to any of the concurrent lines.
