The expression for the number of segments drawn out of the n number of points in the circle is,
n² / 2 - n / 2
Substituting directly to the expression the number of points, n, which is equal to 8,
8² / 2 - 8 / 2 = 28
Thus, there are 28 segments that can be drawn from the points.

Answer:
Two consecutive integers are of the form
x and x + 1
Their product is equal to 56
x(x + 1) = 56
Solve and find the two numbers x and x + 1. The above equation may be written as follows
x2 + x - 56 = 0
Factor and solve
(x - 7)(x + 8) = 0
solutions: x = 7 , x = -8
x= - 8 is not valid since the number sought must be positive. Hence
x = 7 and x + 1 = 8 are the two consecutive numbers.
