alleryAt most how many points can two different straight lines share?
ATwo
BNone
CThree
DOne
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. One
1. If two distinct lines shared two points, both would be the one line through those points.
2. So two distinct lines meet at most at one point.
3. Parallel lines share none, which still fits 'at most one'.
