Pattern Analysis:
Top Triangle:
A single triangle → Result: 1
✅ There is only 1 visible triangle.
Middle Figure:
1 big triangle made of 4 smaller triangles.
Breakdown:
3 small triangles
1 large triangle in the center (formed by combining 3)
1 large outer triangle
Total = 3 (small) + 1 (center) + 1 (big) = 5 triangles
✅ Answer is 5
Bottom Figure:
A large triangle made of 9 smaller triangles
Let’s count all possible triangles:
9 small triangles (clearly visible)
3 medium triangles (each made of 3 small triangles in a row)
1 large triangle (the outermost big triangle)
3 additional triangles formed in the middle sections
Total: 13 triangles
✅ Answer: 13
