Mathematical Research in High School: The PRIMES Experience
Consider a finite set of lines in 3-space. A joint is a point where three of these lines (not lying in the same plane) intersect. If there are L lines, what is the largest possible number of joints? Well, let’s try our luck and randomly choose k planes. Any pair of planes produces a line, and any tr...
