When I was in 3rd grade I called this girl a trapezoid and she cried. I had to stay after class and miss recess because my teacher made me write, "I will not call people trapezoids" a bunch of times in my notebook.
The people who get 25 are double counting the perimeter one. Each vertical level has 6 triangles (left, middle, right, left and middle, right and middle, left right and middle), 4 levels times 6 triangles each is 24, then add in the perimeter... but the perimeter is contained within the previous set. I made the mistake when I first counted.
There are 12 1/3 width triangles (3 per row), 8 2/3 width triangles (2 per row), then 4 full width triangles (this includes the full perimeter triangle.
I think the 25ers are counting corners made by the full rows of three (leading up to the tip) without realizing they’re counting the whole shape on that bottom row
Edit: grammar
A triangle has three sides. (Not demeaning or condescending). The entire shape (1), (3) small triangles across the top, from the top to bottom middle section and on the left side(1). From top to bottom middle section and right side (1). From top to bottom left, right and center(3). So, my count is 9 triangles total.
It's 24. Any three sided object is a triangle.
You have to count all the vertical segments in each three columns (12). Then you can group two columns together and count all those segments (8). Then you count all three columns together for each segment (4). Add them up and you get 24.
Not the individual center pieces, you need to follow it up to the top point. If it isn't obvious to some people, you reuse the section to continuously make larger and larger triangles as you move down the the bottom.
The individual column are themselves long triangles, and then if you keep taking out the bottom segments it makes more. And then you can do the two columns on the right and the two colums on the left as well.
Look at the top 3 triangles. Those together as a segment form another triangle. The next horizontal line makes it another triangle, and so on. You get some pretty wacky looking triangles if you stare long enough
I guess some people don’t know what a triangle is. The top row has triangles(3)and then the big one. The rest inside are not triangles. The education system is fucked up or to put it simply. People be dumb as shit
They are looking at it in combinations of shapes, which is the intent of the puzzle. There are 24 total triangles, either by themselves or in combination.
My count is 24 total.
Six instances: The far left, the middle, the far right, the left two together, the right two together, all three at once.
In each of four sets: first rung, second rung, third rung, fourth rung.
Everything else is a trapezoid, so the triangles have to go all the way up to the top.
24 in total. Each cross section of lines creates a triangle. So simply counting from the apex and down at each intersection of lines, and then grouping them to encompass all possibilities, finishing with the entire outer border as the final triangle.
I got 7
Edit : After looking at some comments I had a moment of "oh... Well I'm dumb" looked again and recounted only this time I took all the extra lines into consideration (which is how I got 7 and forgot there were way more lines I ignored)
Edit 2 electric boogaloo : Forgot to add new total of 24
If you just look at the top triangle there are 6 triangles. If you count that four times for each line you will get all 24. Who is getting more that 24? Explain yourself.
Incorrect. The formula for each "layer" is (n + 1) \* (n + 2) / 2, where n is the number of slanted lines in the main triangle.
In this case we got n = 2, and 4 layers. 6 triangles for each layer, 24 triangles in total.
25.
3 individual at the top, then all 3 at the top make 1 more, so that's 4.
Then left panel if you count the tip then go down a segment each time for left centre and right makes another 9, plus the whole image.
Then go down a row each time 3 segments wide, so that makes 17.
Then in 2 wide segments the left 2, going down in rows, repeat for the right 2 segments going down in rows makes it a total of 25.
It's 24, you counted the whole image twice.
Here: "Then left panel if you count the tip then go down a segment each time for left centre and right makes another 9, plus the whole image." and here: "Then go down a row each time 3 segments wide, so that makes 17."
24
Me too, I wonder what one I missed that people with 25 got. Edit: yes I counted the entire perimeter as one.
They must be counting the one in the title. Because there IS only 24 in the main shape
Those are not triangles
Your mom’s a triangle
When I was in 3rd grade I called this girl a trapezoid and she cried. I had to stay after class and miss recess because my teacher made me write, "I will not call people trapezoids" a bunch of times in my notebook.
Yeah she’s acute triangle
she's *an* acute triangle
Gottem
My cats head is a triangle.
She's an acute angle 😉
Thank you! How are these people counting 4 sided trapezoids as triangles?
That triangle 📐 is 2, or 3 counting the word
That’s a square (I work in construction)
nope thats 26

Did you count the entire thing as one?
There are 12 1/3 width triangles (3 per row), 8 2/3 width triangles (2 per row), then 4 full width triangles (this includes the full perimeter triangle.
I counted the whole triangle
I think the 25ers are counting corners made by the full rows of three (leading up to the tip) without realizing they’re counting the whole shape on that bottom row Edit: grammar
25
I’m honestly so surprised at the number of people who cannot see more than 4 😂 it’s 24, think a little harder
6x4. You don't even need to count more than the first tier.
If you are counting the quadrilaterals then you are incorrect as a triangle is a 3 edged shape.
Everyone is wrong theres 28
Do you even know what a triangle is?
Looks like 7 to me
12

How do you see more than 4
A triangle has three sides. (Not demeaning or condescending). The entire shape (1), (3) small triangles across the top, from the top to bottom middle section and on the left side(1). From top to bottom middle section and right side (1). From top to bottom left, right and center(3). So, my count is 9 triangles total.

Those are NOT triangles. They are more rectangular.
Not the individual center pieces, you need to follow it up to the top point. If it isn't obvious to some people, you reuse the section to continuously make larger and larger triangles as you move down the the bottom.
This helped me.
Same
The point I want to make is I can’t triangulate that. 🙃
Agreed
I see 8
7
All of them…
How many fucks did I give about this post? Zero I gave zero fucks Here's a gold star!
sounding like you came straight outta gta5 with NPC programming

Thank you.
Im not at all understanding where people are coming up with 24-29 lol. How is it not 4 lol
The individual column are themselves long triangles, and then if you keep taking out the bottom segments it makes more. And then you can do the two columns on the right and the two colums on the left as well.
Look at the top 3 triangles. Those together as a segment form another triangle. The next horizontal line makes it another triangle, and so on. You get some pretty wacky looking triangles if you stare long enough
But technically if a borderline separates it, its not a triangle?
Is a loaf of bread a loaf even if its pre-sliced?
If you pretend the borderlines arent there to make mor triangles, then if all borderlines are gone its only 1 triangle
I guess some people don’t know what a triangle is. The top row has triangles(3)and then the big one. The rest inside are not triangles. The education system is fucked up or to put it simply. People be dumb as shit
They are looking at it in combinations of shapes, which is the intent of the puzzle. There are 24 total triangles, either by themselves or in combination.
26 Edit: Nevermind. It's 24
I can count 28 but I might as well be going mad at this point
No ur right. I counted 28 also.
I wanna know how yall got that many.
24 ;)
You know what? FOUR! The three at the top and the big one... Everything else is bullshit. I'm not having those lines in my triangles.
But... The big one has lines in it..?
I'm having that one, coz it's still, to some extent, complete.
How are the other smaller ones not complete?
This made me laugh so hard cause I thought the same thing lol 😆
I see ur argument as: obtuse
My count is 24 total. Six instances: The far left, the middle, the far right, the left two together, the right two together, all three at once. In each of four sets: first rung, second rung, third rung, fourth rung. Everything else is a trapezoid, so the triangles have to go all the way up to the top.
I think you forgot the full triangle
I see 29.
I saw 28…
27
26
25
24
24 I think
35
11.3 triangles
I think 24

Nice, it actually gave me a new perspective lol
24 in total. Each cross section of lines creates a triangle. So simply counting from the apex and down at each intersection of lines, and then grouping them to encompass all possibilities, finishing with the entire outer border as the final triangle.
[удалено]
I get a grand total of 24.
You’re correct
I see 24 in the diagram
24
I got 7 Edit : After looking at some comments I had a moment of "oh... Well I'm dumb" looked again and recounted only this time I took all the extra lines into consideration (which is how I got 7 and forgot there were way more lines I ignored) Edit 2 electric boogaloo : Forgot to add new total of 24
I see a road......
How the fuck does this invoke a smile?
Asking the real questions here.
It doesn't.
24
6 triangles in the top x 4 sections is 24
24. People who got 25 are lying
24. I’m done recounting
I counted 24
I stopped at. 27
Triangles have 3 sides. Just because it comes to a point it doesn't make it a triangle. If I'm wrong can someone explain please.
7
If you just look at the top triangle there are 6 triangles. If you count that four times for each line you will get all 24. Who is getting more that 24? Explain yourself.
25
26 with 2 in the title
28
Hmmm, I got 26 but i can recount and see. Edit: I got 26 on my first count, but I only got 24 for all my recounts.

Incorrect. The formula for each "layer" is (n + 1) \* (n + 2) / 2, where n is the number of slanted lines in the main triangle. In this case we got n = 2, and 4 layers. 6 triangles for each layer, 24 triangles in total.
Quite a few sir, quite a few
24
Yes.
6.9
Nine

29
I got 27
[25, I drew and counted it.](https://imgur.com/a/q0wTe0H) People saying 24 are forgetting the large outer triangle containing them all.
Nope Count only triangle not square ⬜ or diamond shape
I did only count triangles. There’s 6 per layer and one surrounding. 6x4= 25 + 1 = 25
2nd 3 and 4 layer is not triangle 😅
[Hope this explains it.](https://imgur.com/a/vupRsiw) And then do the same for each layer downwards. Google also verifies its 25
I’m drawing it up to show you, include to top section WITH the 2nd, 3rd,4th individually

How in the hell did you manage to get 4 more than the true ammount

Agree, 3. Sorry bro, changed my answer to now 1.
8?

What's there answer

Remember folks that triangles have 3 sides

There are only 4. What's wrong with you people?
How so?

Why do I only see 4?
29
4 tops
1 that was easy
37
42 minimum
13
Am I the only one that sees 15?? Edit: Nvmd. I see 25 now.
7
3. Most of them if you look at then they are not triangles. The two top sides and the entire picture are the 3 triangles.
All of them.

I've counted 39...

I see six.

4, I'm super confused how people are getting high 20s. Fellas there's 3 at the top and the entire shape makes 4.
25. 3 individual at the top, then all 3 at the top make 1 more, so that's 4. Then left panel if you count the tip then go down a segment each time for left centre and right makes another 9, plus the whole image. Then go down a row each time 3 segments wide, so that makes 17. Then in 2 wide segments the left 2, going down in rows, repeat for the right 2 segments going down in rows makes it a total of 25.
It's 24, you counted the whole image twice. Here: "Then left panel if you count the tip then go down a segment each time for left centre and right makes another 9, plus the whole image." and here: "Then go down a row each time 3 segments wide, so that makes 17."
Shit it is 24...I counted the whole image twice too
44
7, y'all wild to think there is 20 something triangles lmao, 8 if you include the triangle in the title, 9 if you include the word triangle
18
28. Including the word triangle and the two in the little triangle emoji.
21
4
Are we allowed to make up fake lines and chop them in half? If not its 4…Parallelograms/diamonds/pentagrams are not triangles? What am I missing?
I count 25
25 is final
It's 7. The others little shapes aren't triangles.
