The Number Of Triangles You See
At first glance, the viral triangle illusion seems simple — just colorful shapes stacked together.
But look closer, and people count anywhere from 9 to over 20 triangles.
The puzzle isn’t really about math; it’s about perception.
Those who see 9 triangles tend to be realists who value clarity and simplicity.
Spotting 13–16 suggests balance — an ability to notice details without losing the bigger picture.
Seeing 20 or more reveals a creative “pattern amplifier” who connects everything into grand designs.
Psychologists link this to Gestalt perception — our brain’s instinct to see wholes rather than parts.
The image reminds us that personality shapes perception:
whether you focus on what’s visible or imagine what lies beyond,
both reveal how beautifully your mind works.
