OpenStudy (waheguru):

you can make many more

OpenStudy (anonymous):

From a single vertex to the edges of the pentagon, you get 5 triangles. Formula = #sides of the polygon.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Until and Unless you tell me the rule for making the triangles

OpenStudy (waheguru):

so the number of sides equal the amount of triangles???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. If the triangles are from a single vertex to the edges of the polygon.

OpenStudy (waheguru):
