I count 40 triangles. The tree is a sequoia (no y)

2-I don't know
16 minor triangles + 8 2-triangles +4 4-triangles + 2 8-triangles: minimum 30
4- I suppose number 6, so all count 15

1. Sequoia (I saw poli's answer before thinking about it)
2. 44
3. 44
4. 6 (Interestingly enough, I reached this conclusion differently than Sosia. The boxes have all the numbers from 1 to 9 except 6. Sosia did it from the angle that each column and row should add up to 15.)

wow you guys are smart :D

2.- 16 minor triangles + 8*2 (2-triangles both ways) +4*2 (4-triangles both ways, really 4+2+2) + 2*2 (8-triangles both ways): 44

4- I suppose number 6, so all count 15

I don't like this things, I'm too lazy to count. I prefer other kind of Brain teasers....
