How many different one-to-one correspondences could be listed between the vertices of two regular triangles and the vertices of two regular n-gons?

hero (hero):

Wouldn't that depend on the number of n's per gon?

hero (hero):

I'm sure that depending on the value of n, the number of one-to-one correspondences is different

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not sure. I've been trying to figure this out for the past hour and I just do not understand it.

hero (hero):

Seems like a combinations and permutations question.

I am trying to understand what the one-to-one correspondence is and I just do not get it.

hero (hero):

Here is an example of a one-to-one correspondence: |dw:1334339523518:dw|

hero (hero):

This would be a one to one correspondence for n = 3

hero (hero):

Each vertice maps directly to another vertice

hero (hero):

What course is this you're taking?

I am helping my brother and trying to learn Geometry.
