So start with an upper case H and then draw 3 straight lines. What is the most closed triangles that you can form? Example:



Example



Note that triangles inside of triangles only count once (e.g. 5 & 6 in the image don't count):
However, triangles inside of other triangles do not count



And you aren't allow to extend the cross line of the H (e.g. 5 in the image doesn't count)
Example of what's not allowed
