If the sides AB, BC and

Question:

If the sides $\mathrm{AB}, \mathrm{BC}$ and $\mathrm{CA}$ of a triangle $\mathrm{ABC}$ have 3,5 and 6 interior points respectively, then the total number of triangles that can be constructed using these points as vertices, is equal to :

  1. (1) 364

  2. (2) 240

  3. (3) 333

  4. (4) 360


Correct Option: , 3

Solution:

Total Number of triangles formed $={ }^{14} \mathrm{C}_{3}-{ }^{3} \mathrm{C}_{3}-{ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{3}-{ }^{6} \mathrm{C}_{3}$

$=333$
