Well, I counted quickly and came up with 20, but I'm sure there are more than that.
Thanks for this!

You could also count 39 if each triangle is looked at in it's 3 different angle directions.....if each triangle is just considered just once 13

Congratulations to those who said 24! I had an ah-ha moment like beauflow when I saw the correct answer.

Okay the answer is 24, but I still get 38. I counted each point of the triangle. Can you show how the answer is 24?

Olanza, I have no idea how to show you the triangles. I realized you have to count triangles within the big trinagle to get 24.
