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
