How Do i find How many segments intersect at C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Here is the question with the chart

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hey Sasogeek :)

OpenStudy (sasogeek):

a line can be called a segment, a line segment :) how many lines meet at C...? :) and hi again :)

OpenStudy (sasogeek):

...?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A line Segment is part of a line i get that a line segment is "------" a line is <-->

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you check the attachment, Im having a hard time finding what defines and intersect

OpenStudy (istim):

"Defines"?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

OpenStudy (istim):

I dunno about defines, but I think recognizing the intersections to be fairly simple.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look at my attachment

OpenStudy (istim):

I have.

OpenStudy (sasogeek):

line segments have connected to form that figure, how many line segments meet (intersect) at C ?

OpenStudy (istim):

You know, "Touch" c. Or connect at c?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

intersect not connect or meet, so it would be 1 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 touch C 1 intersects right? or am i missing something

OpenStudy (sasogeek):

intersect is the same as meet or connect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK i get that Right now from your drawing i see 2 Meeting points or intersecting points or connecting points what ever you want to call them is that right?

OpenStudy (sasogeek):

how many lines can u see joining at point C ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1330466931151:dw| in this i see 5 because of the center one but because 5 is not an answer i think its 4 because theres 4 points joining into c
