How many triangles does a polygon have?
It varies regarding the number of sides of polygon.Additional Information:-The formula is for any polygon: n-2 = number of interior triangles whereas n represents the number of sides of the polygon
What is the connectionbetween the number of sides of the polygon and the number of triangles into which it may be divided by drawing diagonals from one vertex?
Number of sides minus 2 equals the number of triangles within the polygon.
What is the formula in identifying the number of triangle in a polygon?
You can have an infinite number of triangles in a polygon, it would really depend on the size of the triangles you are trying to fit in.If on the other hand you mean that triangles are made by joining the point of the polygon to make triangles then it's the number of sides minus two.-n(sides)-2
What is the equation for the number of triangles that can be drawn in a polygon?
Some BasicsA polygon can have as many side as possible, as long as it's not round. Well, a triangle is 3-sided, so if you mean how many sets of three sides, so no. Definition: Triangles of a polygon are the triangles created by drawing line segments from one vertex of a polygon to all the other vertices.AnswerFor a regular polygon having 'n' sides, the number of triangles that can be drawn in it is (n-2). Hence, you can draw 2 triangles in a square, 3 in a pentagon, 4 in a hexagon, etc.For an irregular polygon, this formula may not always hold true.(check the related link)
How many triangle can be formed in a polygon?
It is the number of sides of the polygon minus two as for example a pentagon has 5 sides and so 5-2 = 3 triangles
How many triangles in an undecagon?
There are 11 triangles in an undecagon. The number of sides of a polygon is the number of triangles it has.

How many triangles in 11-30 sided polygons?
Number of triangles in a polygon is determined by (n-2) = number of triangles, whereas n is the number of sides of the polygon
How do you count no of triangles are there in given triangle question?
Number of triangles in a polygon = number of sides-2
How many triangles can you fit in a regular polygon?
The number of triangles that we can fit in a regular polygon with n sides is n - 2.

How many triangles are in a 27-gon?
25 triangles.The number of triangles in a polygon is always 2 less than the number of sides it has.
What is the relationship between the number of polygon sides and the number of triangles formed?
i don't know that is why i asked you

How many triangles can make a hexagon?
4 triangles make 1 hexagon. (easy way to find out how many triangles there are in a polygon- take number of sides of the polygon, subtract 2 from it, that's your answer!)
