If do you mean how many lines connecting any two of them, then the answer is know: n(n-1)/2. Could you please be more specific?

Even though I don't like to do someone else homework, I would ask you a detailed example of what you're trying to achieve, and show us what have you tried.

Not just 2 , at least 2. It can connect all of them ( if the points are collinear).
