 |

How many can you see?
https://www.digi-camuk.co.uk/tri.jpg
(this whole thing fails if even I didn't get it right)
Including triangles with lines through them.
There are 8 unsegmented ones yes, but how many ones with lines through them?

Hi
I know the answer I got, and the theory of the correct answer but it depends if a line is always a line of separation.
So I dont agree with theory of the correct answer as they including fragmented triangles.

There are eight. If you want to count multisected you need to specify that type.  ____________________ "There's the horizon! Ride hard, ride fast and cut down all who stand in your way!" |

Ahhh feck you noticed the As before I could say it.
Edit: There is a third A, but I wouldn't be so sure the "Americans blah blah blah" sentence was included in the original puzzle.
EDIT MOAR: As for multi-sected and not counting As, I got 80 or 81 depending on whether or not I counted the main triangle twice.  ____________________ Current Bikes: Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 (2020)

From then on, I and the bicycle feelings deeper.

Jesus, I must be going dyslexic, there are three As. I actually entirely missed the text at the bottom.
What else have I missed. The whole lot's in a square, isn't it?
Ten triangles.  ____________________ "There's the horizon! Ride hard, ride fast and cut down all who stand in your way!" |

Turns out the answer is actually 64. However I still can't think of a logical reason I counted 16 over that. I didn't mistake 4 sided shapes and I tried my darndest not to double count.  ____________________ Current Bikes: Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 (2020)
