Detailed Solution

We have, Number of diagonals of a hexagon =C2   6-6=9

  n(s)= Total number of selections of two diagonals =C2   9=36

and n(E)= The number of selections of two diagonals which intersect at an interior point

= The number of selections of four vertices =C4   6=15

Hence, required probability =n(E)n(S)=1536=512
