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

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

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

@Tusar.
Stated as rohit and Rakesh, We can take minimum Qty of line. Since Ef on AB, AB is sufficient.

Why did we not consider EF as horizontal?

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

@Suresh EL and LF are on AB so AB alone is sufficient to draw the givendiagram
@Sharmie any line joining two point is a straight line.
