Answer : 3. "164"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 164 Explanation: For a triangle, we need 3 non-collinear points. So with 12 points (when all the 12 are such that any three non-collinear is12C3. But among them 8 points are collinear. If all these 8 points are different we get 8C3 triangles as they are collinear. In 12C3 triangles, we do not get 8C3 triangles Therefore, The number of triangles we get = 12C3-8C3 = 164
