How many triangles are there in the following figure?

Figure
  1. 9

  2. 6

  3. 12

  4. 10

Show answer & explanation

Answer: (D) 10

Explanation

The diagonals and the centre line make 5 small triangles (top, left, bottom and two on the right). Joining the two right-hand pieces gives 1 more, and each half of the rectangle cut by a diagonal gives 4 more (2 per diagonal). Total = 5 + 1 + 4 = 10.
