The figure may be labeled as shown.
The simplest triangles are AGE, EGC, GFC, BGF, DGB and ADG i.e. 6 in number.
The triangles composed of two components each are AGC, BGC and ABG i.e. 3 in number.
The triangles composed of three components each are AFC, BEC, BDC, ABF, ABE and DAC i.e. 6 in number.
