Re: 3 points

Hi juantheron;

Usually this problem is given with a certain amount of points that are on the circle that you pick 3 from. Is there more to this question?

The way the question is worded right now the answer seems to be 0.


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
