Answer 1

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

96

Step-by-step explanation:

Using side b as the base, 4 points makes 3 bases (the space in between).  With three bases, you can have 3 bases of 1 segment, 2 bases of 2 segments, and 1 base of 3 segments.  This equals 6 bases. Each of these can connect to a point on line a. 6x6=36

Using side a as the base, 6 points makes 5 bases.  With 5 bases, you can have 5 bases of 1 segment, 4 bases of 2 segments, 3 bases of 3 segments, 2 bases of 4 segments, and 1 base of 5 segments.  This equals 15 bases.  Each of these can connect to a point on line b.  15x4=60

36+60=96
