The number of isosceles triangles that can be formed from a given line segment depends on the length of the segment and the positioning of the vertex opposite the base. If you fix the base as the line segment and choose any point above or below it as the third vertex, an infinite number of isosceles triangles can be created. However, if you have multiple line segments of equal length, you can form additional isosceles triangles by pairing these segments as the legs.

What shape is made up from 4 triangles?
It would depend on the triangles, but assuming they were equilateral or isosceles, a trapezoid if alternated in a line.
Are pyramids made up from equilateral triangles?
The Great Pyramids at Giza are, but the Meso-Americans were truncated.
Can all 4 sided shape be made by two right angled triangles?
Absolutely. Any two congruent right triangles will form a rectangle, and if the right triangles are isosceles right triangles, they will form a square.

Vincent drew a line from one coner of a rectangle to another corner to make 2 triangles describe the 2 triangles he made?
Inscribed triangles in a rectangle are identical right triangles but they are rotated 180 relative to each other.
What shape is made up from 4 triangles?

What is the formula to determine how many parallelograms there are in an isosceles triangle made up of smaller isosceles triangles of the same size?
An isosceles triangle can be divided into 4 smaller, identical isosceles triangles. Each of these can then be divided into 4, and each of them ... So, the answer to the question is infinitely many.
Are pyramids made up from equilateral triangles?
The Great Pyramids at Giza are, but the Meso-Americans were truncated.
What is the name of a quadrilateral made from two identical isosceles triangles?
In general, a parallelogram. But if the triangles are joined along their odd side, a rhombus.
What is the formula to determine how many parallelograms there are in an isosceles triangle made up of 9 smaller but equally sized isosceles triangles?
There are normally no parallelograms within an isosceles triangle unless you put them there yourself.
Can all 4 sided shape be made by two right angled triangles?
Absolutely. Any two congruent right triangles will form a rectangle, and if the right triangles are isosceles right triangles, they will form a square.
How many triangles can a 20-gon be made into?
20 isosceles triangles with each base being a side of the 20-gon, and the opposite vertices at the center of the polygon.
What shape is made out of two congruent triangles?
If you have 2 EQUILATERAL triangles, and you stack them on their respective hypotenuses, the result: SQUARE. If you have 2 ISOSCELES triangles, and you stack them on their respective hypotenuses, the result: RECTANGLE. If you have 2 OBTUSE triangles, and you stack them on their respective hypotenuses, the result: PARALLELOGRAM.
How many short isosceles triangles are needed to build one great Icosahedron?
According to some definitions an icosahedron is considered a Platonic solid so that each of its faces is an equilateral triangle. You would, therefore need three coplanar isosceles triangles to make each face of the icosahedron. Since there are 20 faces in an icosahedron, you would need 60 such triangles.
Is a regular pentagon made up of 5 isosceles triangles?
It can be, if all the vertices of the pentagon are joined to its centre. But if they are joined to any other point, it will not be.
Can a cut be made between two parallel sides of an isosceles trapezoid to make two isosceles trapezoids?
No, a cut cannot be made between two parallel sides of an isosceles trapezoid to create two isosceles trapezoids. An isosceles trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides, so cutting between them would result in two separate shapes, neither of which would be an isosceles trapezoid. The resulting shapes would likely be irregular quadrilaterals or triangles, depending on the location of the cut.
