Ready for the answer? Here’s the countdown, step by step:
- 16 small individual triangles
- 7 medium-sized triangles, formed by 2 or 3 base triangles
- 3 large triangles, resulting from combinations of 4 triangles
- 1 very large triangle formed by 9 small ones
- 1. The overall triangle, the one that encompasses the entire figure
Total: exactly 27 triangles
And there you have it! The correct answer was therefore: a) 27.

Beyond the simple visual game, this type of challenge reveals a lot about how we think. Some people immediately grasp the big picture, while others focus on the details. Neither method is better than the other , but together… we see everything! It’s a bit like real life, isn’t it?
So, if you found the right answer, well done! And if you got it wrong? Don’t worry: this kind of exercise is above all an excellent way to develop your observation skills and patience.
And between us, it’s still more pleasant than doing equations, isn’t it?
