56 triangles
Explanation :
[Reference : Number of triangles formed by joining the angular points of a polygon]
The number of triangles that can be formed by joining the angular points of a polygon of n sides as vertices are
n(n−1)(n−2)6n(n−1)(n−2)6
Here n = 8
Hence, the number of triangles that can be formed by joining the vertices of an octagon
=n(n−1)(n−2)6=8(8−1)(8−2)6=8.7.66=56

Answer:
56 triangle s
use this formula
n(n-1)(n-2)6n(n-1)(n-2)6
here
n=2
