you can make 76 different triangles on a 3x3 grid

u can make none.
9 squares = 18 triangles * * * * * The correct answer is 76. There are 9 points in the grid. You can pick any 3 out of these 9 points in 9*8*7/(3*2*1) = 84 ways. However, 3 will form horizontal lines in the grid, 3 will form vertical lines in the grid, and 2 will form diagonal lines in the grid. None of these 8 triplets will form triangles, but all the rest will. So the answer is 84-8=76.
There are 6 triangles in an octagon
Infinitely many.
depends on what size triangles and what kind of triangles?

27 triangles make up an Icosihenagon
3 triangles make up a hexagon.
Infinitely many.

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!)
