Only one.
It is: 8-2 = 6 triangles
Because it has only 3 sides and a polygon must have 4 or more sides to have diagonals. A diagonal of a polygon is a line segment which connects two non-adjacent vertices. Since from any vertex of a triangle, you are adjacent to both of the other vertex, there are not any non-adjacent vertices.

It depends if the polygon is convex or concave but if it is a regular polygon it would have 560
Only one.
n-3 diagonals. Of the n vertices of the polygon, you cannot draw diagonals to the two adjacent vertices since these are sides of the polygon and so not diagonals. And you cannot draw a diagonal from a vertex to itself. So those are three vertices that are ruled out, leaving n-3.
It is: 8-2 = 6 triangles
In a polygon with n sides, we have n(n-3)/2 diagonals. In a convex polygon with n sides, you can draw n-3 diagonals from each vertex, but you are counting each one twice you so you need to divide by do. That is why we have n(n-3) divided by 2
You cannot draw a diagonal from a vertex to itself. So that is 1. Also, the diagonals to the adjacent vertices on either side will actually be the sides of the polygon, not diagonals. Those are the other 2.

13 The correct answer is 12. From any one vertex, you can draw a diagonal to all but 3 vertices: the vertex itself and the next vertex on either side of your vertex (these would be sides of your shape, not diagonals).
fourteen. If you draw if diagonals from one vertex there are 14. fourteen. If you draw if diagonals from one vertex there are 14.
There are 5 diagonals
64 sides = 64 angles From one angle you can draw (64 - 2) diagonals = 62. Lines from an angle to the immediately adjacent angles are sides, not diagonals.
