Choose the correct decomposition of the polygon into n - 2 triangles.
(1 point)
Figure 2 is the correct decomposition because it has n - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2 triangles.
Figure 1 is the correct decomposition because Figure 1 is decomposed into 4 triangles that are not equal sizes.
Figure 1 is the correct decomposition because Figure 1 is decomposed into 2 triangles that are equal sizes.
Figure 1 is the correct decomposition because it has 4 triangles of the equal size.
Figure 2 is the correct decomposition because it has n - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2 triangles.
The correct decomposition of the polygon into n - 2 triangles is Figure 1.
The correct decomposition of a polygon into n - 2 triangles would be Figure 2, which has n - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2 triangles.
To solve this, start by counting the number of triangles in each figure. In Figure 1, there are four triangles, while in Figure 2, there are only two triangles. Since we want the decomposition with n - 2 triangles, the decomposition in Figure 2 fits the requirement.
Figure 1 is not the correct decomposition because it has four triangles that are of different sizes, which does not follow the condition of having n - 2 triangles. Additionally, Figure 1 is not decomposed into equal-sized triangles.
Therefore, the correct answer is Figure 2.
