Determine the total number of triangles present in the given figure. (NOTE: The complete solution is provided in the detailed section below.)

Explanation

Step 1: Smallest triangles

If we look at the smallest possible divisions:

• Top section: 4 small triangles

• Bottom left: 2 small triangles

• Bottom right: 2 small triangles
  Total smallest ones = 8

Step 2: Medium triangles (made of 2 or 3 small ones)

• Top part: 2 medium triangles (one on left, one on right)

• Bottom part: 2 medium triangles (left, right)
  Total medium = 4

Step 3: Larger triangles inside main shape

• One triangle formed by the top half (entire top section)

• One triangle formed by bottom left section

• One triangle formed by bottom right section
  Total larger ones = 3

Step 4: The whole triangle

• The largest triangle is the whole outline = 1

Grand total = 8 (small) + 4 (medium) + 3 (large) + 1 (whole) = 16 triangles
