Dilating them
Yes, an octagon could be considered to be made out of 8 triangles.
This is NOT true.The cardinality of the set of points in a circle is the same as the cardinality of the set of points in a line.First, break the circle and straighten it out. I think you would agree that the number of points remains the same.Now apply some continuous monotonic function that takes one end of that line segment and assigns it to -infinity and the other end to +infinity. I think you would agree that this is possible.We have now made a one-to-one, invertible correspondence between the points in the original circle and the points in a line, demonstrating that the two objects have the same cardinality.Roughly speaking!
More than 35 triangles can possibly be made in a triangle..!
