Play with Polygons

For 100 - sided polygon

  1. Find the number of 20 sided polygon that can be formed in it by joining its vertices(With no side common with that of 100 - sided polygon).

    your answer can be represented as a × C c b a \times \overset { b }{ \underset { c }{ C } } : C is combinatorics symbol

  2. Find the number of rectangles that can be formed by joining its vertices(Considering it to be regular(only for this case)). Let it be d d .

  3. Find the number of point of intersections of the diagonals in the interior of polygon such that none intersections coincide . Let it be e e .


Enter your answer as m i n min { a + b + c + d + e a + b + c + d + e }


Try my set : Let's play with polygons


The answer is 3922553.

a = 5 ; b = 79 ; c = 19 ; d = 1225 ; e = 3921225

Why did you add the min? Is it because while calculating "e", some of the POI may coincide?(Hence reducing the value of e.

No that's considering c which can be 60 or 19

How did you calculate e . I mean there are many common points of intersections other than center.how to take that into account

Consider any quadrilateral selecting any 4 vertices. The intersection of its diagonals will give one pt.! Ans is 100C4
