I counted all the triangles and solved the question.
There are 9 cases according to me :
C a s e 1 Case 1 : All the small fragments : 12 \boxed{12}

C a s e 2 Case 2 : Two at a time : 6 \boxed{6}

C a s e 3 Case 3 : Half at a time = 2 × 3 2 \times 3 : 6 \boxed{6}

C a s e 4 Case 4 :Half at a time = 2 × 3 2 \times 3 : 6 \boxed{6}

C a s e 5 Case 5 : One-third a time : 3 \boxed{3}

C a s e 6 Case 6 :Half at a time from each vertex = 2 × 3 2 \times 3 : 6 \boxed{6}

C a s e 7 Case 7 : Just parts : 6 \boxed{6}

C a s e 8 Case 8 : Big triangle as a whole : 1 \boxed{1}

C a s e 9 Case 9 : Small triangle as a whole : 1 \boxed{1}

Thus total number of triangles : 47 \boxed{47}
