This may seem easy at first but you will quickly realize it is not as easy as it looks. All you have to do is count the squares but 92% of people who attempt this test, fail to get the correct answer. Do you think you are in the 8%? Give it a go!
The answer is revealed below but doesn’t cheat by peeking!
So… how many did you get? Did it take you a long time?
A
B
C
And now, for the correct answer:
We found 15 individual squares. Did you guess 15? If you were sneaky and decided the word “square” counts toward your answer, then the answer would be 16.
These puzzles make great party games–try it and challenge your friends to try them, too! Were you able to solve any of them on your own?
Most people will fail this test – but how many triangles can you see in this picture?
How many triangles?
We all love riddles and train our brains, and it’s a good choice. Are you ready to wake up and face this puzzle?
Here comes the challenge. It’s not proper math, but I remember our geometry teacher gave us a similar problem back in school. This may seem easy at first but you will quickly realize it is not as easy as it looks.
Below, there is a picture – and the question is: how many triangles are in it?
How many did you find? The answer will be below the next picture.
The answer is revealed below but doesn’t cheat by peeking!
A
B
C
There are a lot of triangles
It is important to think a little outside the box to figure this one out.
The correct answer is 13 triangles, that is, option C.
First, there are nine small triangles, that’s the easiest part.
Then we have three larger triangles that are made up of four small ones.
Finally, we have a large one that composed of all the other triangles.
9 + 3 + 1 = 13
Did you get the correct answer? Congratulations to you if that’s the case, you are really sharp!
