Chose any 2 concurrent lines .. you will get one triangle...

from the n concurrent lines the line which is parallel to our excluded line won't be counted as we cannot form a triangle with two parallel lines
by fixing the seprate non-concurrent line. as three concurrent lines cannot form a triangle .
we have to select 2 line from the rest (n-1) concurrent lines.
n-1C2
