A [circle](https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Circle) and two distinct [lines](https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Line) are drawn on a sheet of paper. What is the largest possible number of points of intersection of these figures?
$\text {(A)}\ 2 \qquad \text {(B)}\ 3 \qquad {(C)}\ 4 \qquad {(D)}\ 5 \qquad {(E)}\ 6$
The two [lines](https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Line) can both [intersect](https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Intersection) the [circle](https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Circle) twice, and can intersect each other once, so $2+2+1= \boxed {\text {(D)}\ 5}.$
