If you mean "How many diagonals can be drawn from one vertex of a figure with 16 sides", the formula is n-3, where "n" being the number of sides of the figure. So 16-3 = 13 diagonals that can be drawn from one vertex.

None. By definition a diagonal goes from one vertex to another vertex and so each diagonal MUST have two vertices.

How do they draw a diagonal?

A line that joins any vertex of a polygon (or polyhedron) to any vertex other than itself or adjacent ones is a diagonal.


How many triangles can be formed by a diagonal drawn from a fixed vertex of a polygon with 17 sides?

In a polygon with 17 sides, a diagonal can be drawn from a fixed vertex to any of the other non-adjacent vertices. From one vertex, there are 14 other vertices (17 total vertices - 1 fixed vertex - 2 adjacent vertices) to which diagonals can be drawn. Each diagonal creates a triangle with the fixed vertex and two of the vertices connected by the diagonal. Therefore, the number of triangles that can be formed is equal to the number of diagonals, which is 14.


How many diagonals could be drawn from one vertex of a 15-gon?

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).
