OpenStudy (ash2326):

@nickiliz do you know combinations?

OpenStudy (ash2326):

no

^^ @ash2326

Parth (parthkohli):

Hmm. There's actually a pretty formula for it: \( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow \Large {n(n - 3) \over 3}}\)

Parth (parthkohli):

Oops. n(n - 3)/2*

OpenStudy (ash2326):

@nickiliz put n=20 in the formula suggested by @ParthKohli and find the no. of diagonals

OpenStudy (ash2326):

@nickiliz did you try?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the answer 170?
