Find the number of triangles in the given figure

The correct answer is
10

To find the number of triangles in the given figure, let's break it down step by step:

  1. First, count the triangles formed with the top vertex and the base. There are three smaller triangles at the base: 1, 2, and 3.
  2. Then, consider the larger triangles created by combining these smaller pieces:
    • Triangle using lines 1 and 2: 4
    • Triangle using lines 2 and 3: 5
  3. Consider larger composite triangles formed with multiple parts:
    • Triangle combining lines 1, 2, and 3: 6
    • Whole large triangle seen as a single piece: 7
  4. Analyzing the outer parts:
    • Larger triangle using 1 and the outermost line: 8
    • Larger triangle using 3 and the outermost line: 9
  5. Combine to form even larger triangles:
    • Entire figure seen as a single triangle: 10

Hence, the total number of triangles in the figure is 10.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

10
