Find the minimum number of straight lines required to make the given figure.

16
17
18
19
Answer: Option
Explanation:

The figure may be labelled as shown.

The horizontal lines are IK, AB, HG and DC i.e. 4 in number.

The vertical lines are AD, EH, JM, FG and BC i.e. 5 in number.

The slanting lines are IE, JE, JF, KF, DE, DH, FC and GC i.e. 8 is number.

Thus, there are 4 + 5 + 8 = 17 straight lines in the figure.

Why not take EF as straight line?

@Amar EF are already on AB. So we can't consider that as line.

Best way is to draw the figure then itself, it will be easy to find rather than numbering.

Hello by counting I have got 25 lines. I think your's assumption is false.

Why are counting slanting lines? They are not straight lines.

Vivek said:   10 years ago
It's ask about straight line not horizontal, vertical, slanting.

Why isn't JM considered as one of the lines?
