The three possible combinations would be continental-continental, continental-oceanic, and oceanic-oceanic.
Each of the plates may be oceanic or continental. That gives three possibilities:oceanic - oceanicoceanic - continentalcontinental - continental.

If order doesn't matter, 15 combinations and if order does matter, 360 combinations are possible.
There are millions of possible combinations.
A mountain is an example of a possible result of converging plate boundaries. An actual example of a converging plate boundary would be the Indian-Eurasian Plate Boundarywhich is creating the Himalayan Mountain Range. Other convergent plates can create trenches such as the Mariana Trench, which is the lowest place on the surface of the Earth.
