this is just autism

>average chinese child can build an iphone under 5 minutes
i dont think anybody can compete with them.

83?

I'm not wasting my shitposting time to count that shit

Who gives a shit

>Counting triangles is a valued skill in America

Remember, sage goes in the Options field.

OP is a faggot and this is a classical slide thread.

If you are not a troll you legitimately need help

modified pascals triangle. now fuck off

You dont have to count if your not some retard that cant make their own formula. Each row of the triangle gets smaller by one. Then just add/subtract the extras Easy in under a minute.

A fuckton.

I'm going to say 0 as I see no shapes with only 3 sides

i'd say about 0 to 100,000

Is it some kind of trick question?

creating a math formula on the fly is hardly "easy". If it was it would not have taken us 3,000 years from the invention of writing to create Algebra.

>99.82% will fail this

fuck you and your shitty grammar

Too bad this isn't real.

Newfag master race

Who the fuck cares? This isn't even remotely about politics, get

this
im not even wasting my shitposting time typing this out

In minutes? I solved this in about 30 seconds, it's easy if you know the formula...

160 something

>modified pascals triangle
Just saying mathy words doesn't make you correct user.
P.S. chinese kid already solve it by now.

2?

Each row gets smaller by two, but u forget about the extra triangles one can imagine by just making 3 or 9 triangles a bigger one

/pol is 90% slide threads now
who doesn't like slide threads?

I ain't countin that shit nigga

cancer here

Are you fucking stupid? Have you really never developed a formula through induction before? People do it all the time.

A lot.

fuck off faggot. If solving this would allow me to kill you I'd have it done by now. I can do it, you can't. Eat my asshole chinklet

2 what

>I can't do it but I just won't!
You have to be 18 or older to post here.

Due to the nature of computer graphics, it is impossible to create actual real triangles, and the picture does not assume that the shapes present are triangles.

Thus, zero.

You're forgetting the triangles created by smaller triangles forming larger triangles.

far too many!

Guess that makes me NSA

Reality doesn't allow a "real" triangle as well.

>Funlands brainlets trying to solve a problem

...

Advanced niggery

I'm not counting that.

Depends on what you class as triangle.

Too god damn many triangles can be made

It's not about counting. It's about creating a unique, fast way to count.

If you were a legit scientist, you would be expected to think of new ways to perform experimental techniques on the fly. That is a valuable skill related to your IQ.

digits confirm it

>u class as triangle.
What? Pretty sure triangles aren't subjective.

Are they literally just asking how many individual triangles are in this thing? Or are they asking how many triangles there are as a combination of all of the triangles?

They're just asking how many triangles there are it's easy.

the big triangle has i^2 triangles in it (i rows) + 5*3 for the florets on the end

The weird shapes on the edges just cancel out with the missing triangles in the 5th and 10th rows.

11^2 + 5*3 = 136

I'm definitely a mix of redditcancer and NSA

Classic anglo weasel answer.

2,128 triangles. I counted.

What's with the rise in these sorts of math tests on Sup Forums lately? Not that I'm complaining, they're fun.

I assume you are asking how many "little" triangles are in the pic. Because there's way too many larger triangles to count.

The "main" equilateral triangle has a side length of 11. so the area A is
A = .5*b*h = .5*11*11*sqrt(3).
Compare that to the area a of a single small triangle:
a = .5*1*1*sqrt(3)
And we can see that there are 121 triangles in the larger equilateral triangle.

However one of them is missing, so that's 120 little triangles.

Each corner has five more little triangles, so that's 135 little triangles.

Finally, each side has 1 little triangle sticking out, so in total we have 138 little triangles.

Final answer: 138.

>a leaf

This depends on your definition of triangle

no I think you're supposed to count all the triangles, not just the little ones
that would be far too easy

Basically bang on except for the missing triangles in the 10th row.

Sure, but to do this requires a base understanding of how mathematical formulas work. Your brain needs access to the "source code" as it were, in order to build the higher program that is the formula.

Most people don't really get that. They are made to memorize a bunch of algebraic and calculus formulas in high school and that is just about it. Very little is explained about the logic behind said formulas, or even how to go about creating entirely new ones.

It seems simple to us now in the 21st century, but 2,000 years ago the "source code" did not exist. Its why Greek Geometry and Arabic Algebra are so revolutionary and inventions that occurred thousands of years after civilizations first emerged.

I'm not about to even attempt that...

ugh what... I can't even see that missing line without enlarging the image. Ok then, I guess its 136.

>I'm not about to even attempt that...
I think I'm gonna do it, even though I have to study for a linear algebra exam that I have thursday
fuck you OP for triggering my autism

nvm I won't

use recursion, retard

I already the answer retard.
Let's see you do it.

I joined in early 2016. I didn't use to be on the internet too much and didn't really have any friends. I 2015 I met a boy who I became close friends with. At some point he started introducing me to different memes (I think the first one was Le Lenny (I absolutely had no idea about internet culture)) at some point he started showing me Sup Forums thread and he introduced me to a small online community with some Sup Forums users in it. I would often look at his phone screen during lunch break as he was browsing different threads. Somewhere in januari 2016 I started browsing Sup Forums (and very occasionally Sup Forums). somewhere In March 2016 I started posting basic Holohoax and HDNW threads and started posting about other subjects a few weeks later. In May 2016 I started using Sup Forums more often and I also started browsing ylyl threads on Sup Forums. Around July 2016 I started using Sup Forums less frequently again but I would use it more frequently in my depressed periods. Since about a month ago I've been browsing both Sup Forums, Sup Forums and occasionally different other boards during almost all of my free time and when I'm not browsing Sup Forums I'm either feeding my anime, sudoku or porn (unless it's a a fap thread that's in Sup Forums obviously) addiction (I used to be able to do those things ironically but I'm addicted now). Anyways the funny thing is that I had never been on Reddit or any meme site before I started browsing Sup Forums so it was my first experience with higher internet culture

Desu

That took ages to type but I needed to get it off my chest.

110

127. Who cares fuck this i despise these kinds of pics with every fibre of my being

By becoming an above average chinese child.

nobody cares

trick question,
there are NO triangles in the picture

143

Now the inside to outisde ones are popping out. You wanna go mental? Be a maths guy

>An average chinese child can pick more rice than our combines in an hour.
There is no competition.

I got 401 pretty sure i got them all. What do I win?

2 triangles? I see 2 triangles (maybe 3 if that 1 sideways one counts)

What, you don't want solve the wackiest new internet puzzle?

>dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-4052484/Can-solve-Christmas-conundrum-Tricky-festive-puzzle-leaves-internet-stumped.html

Woaaaaah!! It's so tricky!

>higher internet culture
why are dutch people so god damn gay?

137 cuz big triangle in middle u cuck

doing the counting work for the merchant again I see.

newfag, was a summerfag in the summer of '09

he is questioning whether overlapping triangles count you retarded burger

nigger each stripe f is literally just the sequence {1, 3, 5, 7, ...} f(n)=2n-1 and each triangle t g(0)=0 and g(i)=g(i-1)+f(i), then you have the upside down ones, so you filter out the duplicates by modeling the whole thing as an n-choose-k counting problem at whatever size is the largest region common to both orientations, then just slap in the corners and the row with the missing triangle as edge cases

i am currently adding language bindings for two popular REPLs for libmilter in C so that babby code monkeys that only speak python and shit can write your little kiddie scripts and still somehow get paid to work with mail servers i aint got time for the specifics of this shit fuck outta here

ayy fuck me yo this dood got the real method nevermind what i said

you're a fucking loser, no one cares about you

December 14, 2003

Jesus, I guess you never really leave here

Tail end of oldfag, but I visited here pretty infrequently. I played fighting games competitively and some fags in that community posted on Sup Forums and I sporadically browsed it. I barely remember anything pre-boxxy.

The only clear memory I have is the first time I visited the front page. It had a picture of "moot", but for some reason he posted a picture of a mexican in a graduation robe or something and claimed it was him. I don't know what date that is but probably somewhere in 2007.

I've been here over 10 years now but I'm just a "newfag"?

The number is...
21+20*4 + 8+ 5*3 +3

lots

lots and lots

I got 264 but I'm probably missing some.

what a dirty trick... actually it's 2 less than that.

You guys are all brainlets, I already got the right answer and OP is probably a faggot

THANK YOU

Me too solved it in like half a second.

Hello NSA, I'm CIA.

Why should I waste my precious time on stupid shit like this?

the whole fucking deal with this autism triangle is to see if you notice that there's a fucking diamond that looks like 2 triangles with a passing glance.

I got 138 when I looked at it but then realized there's a gap in the middle that -2s it for 136 so yup

Yeah, the diamond is absolutely social media tier.

Also, 136.

Tell me about the Don. Why does he wear the hair?
