This document contains 12 math word problems involving combinations, permutations, geometry and counting principles. The problems calculate the number of triangles that can be formed from 5 points, chords that can be drawn from 6 points on a circle, rectangles formed by intersecting lines, straight lines that can be drawn using 5 points, and ways of choosing pens from different colors in a box. It also includes problems determining the number of diagonals in a 9-sided polygon and possible committees that can be formed from groups of women and men.

How many triangles can be
formed from five points on a
plane, no three of which are collinear? How many chords can be drawn given 6 points on a circle? The figure below shows 5 vertical lines and 4 horizontal lines which intersect forming right angles. As a result, rectangles are formed. How many rectangles in all are formed? How many straight lines can be drawn using five points (A, B, C, D, and E), in which no three points are collinear? In a box, there are 5 black pens, 3 white pens and 4 red pens. In how many ways can 2 black pens, 2 white pens and 2 red pens be chosen? In a box, there are 5 black pens, 3 white pens and 4 red pens. In how many ways can 2 black pens, 2 white pens and 2 red pens be chosen? How many diagonals can be drawn in a 9- sided polygon? A group of 6 women and 9 men will form four-person committees. How many committees are possible if it must consist of the following: 2 men and 2 women? A group of 6 women and 9 men will form four-person committees. How many committees are possible if it must consist of the following: at most 3 men? A group of 6 women and 9 men will form four-person committees. How many committees are possible if it must consist of the following: a majority of women? A group of 6 women and 9 men will form four-person committees. How many committees are possible if it must consist of the following: minimum of 2 women?
