I say 10!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you know can you please explain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sine the segments are AB,AC,AD,AE,BC,BD,BE,CD,CE,DE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, just simply label all of the segments you see... it can get confusing but if you take it step by step by counting segmet AB, then AC, then AD, ..etc

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

segment has two endpoints

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you have 5 points in a straight line : A, B, C, D and E

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

segments having A as one point :- AB AC AD AE

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

segments having B as one point :- BC BD BE

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

segments having C as one point :- CD CE

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

segments having D as one point :- DE

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

total segments = 4 + 3 + 2 + 1

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

see if that makes some sense

thanks guys
