You can make 5 triangles out of 9 toothpicks. With 6 toothpicks, make a large triangle with 2 toothpicks for each side. Now, take individual toothpicks, and make a smaller triangle inside the larger one by joining the midpoints of the sides of the previous triangle. (The vertices of the smaller triangle are the midpoints of the sides of the larger one).
You make 3-D! Look... 6 squares in one cube and you can do that with toothpicks too!
Make one square out of four toothpicks and then make another square using one of the sides of the first square and the remaining three toothpicks. It is easy. Make a square out of four toothpicks. Put three toothpicks around one of the bottom corners of your first square to form a second square. IGNORE THE LINES LOOK AT THE NUMBERS! 1__2 3__4__7 ___5__6
Very few. We honestly can't recall ever having seen one that did. Although there might have been one that we mistook for an unmated chopstick.
Only one, decks of cards have very odd breeding patterns and can only produce one full deck of 52 cards per year

2 rectangles. Put two toothpicks on 2 sides and one on the other side, and that uses 6 toothpicks and if you make another rectangle like that you make 2 rectangles.
Arrange the 9 toothpicks thus: 7 + 3
i made one out of popsicle sticks one time and it turned out well. toothpicks were too hard
If one of the nine toothpicks is the common base of the two congruent isosceles triangles with sides formed by two toothpicks.
It depends what scale you wish to build it to.

around 50,000 quads are made in the US every year
Just one if you break it into small enough pieces. (see related question)
One store located in Boise that sells flavored toothpicks is Zurcher's. The store sells just about everything for a party.
Start with a 2x2 square (that uses 8 toothpicks) Use the other two to make a 1x1 square in one of the corners of the big one..
Remove one of the outer toothpicks and one of the dividers of two squares. there you have two SQUARES .
