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.

If we are taking minimum lines. Then why we consider DE as slanting line. DH was enough.

@Ritu its simple you just add vertical line+horizontal line+slant or inclined line.

Because here we are asking min. Number of straight lines so it will be HG simply.

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

@Suresh.

We are asked to count minimum so we can just take it on AB.

I didn't understand this question. Can someone please explain to me?

It's ask about straight line not horizontal, vertical, slanting.

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

Yes, I got 18 lines. So I think option C is the right answer.

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