it depends on how big the triangles are and how big the sqaure is
otherwise none because they are two different shapes

Good question. Some correct answers, but soooo many wrong answers.
The correct answer is that two right-angled isosceles triangles joined at the hypotenuse will make a square. (Imagine you have made a sandwich, and then cut it in half, corner to corner.)
And what's all this rubbish about them having to be in multiples of 2, ie 2, 4, 6, 8, etc. I can make a square with 3 triangles, and 4, 5, 6, or any other number of triangles (there was nothing in the question about them all being the same size).

U can make a square with a various number of triangles...2 being the least...The reason for this is that there are 180 degrees in a triangle...And 36o in a square.... 180+180=360....Clear????

Depends on the type of triangle. Can't remember all 3 names because it's been 20 years since I was in a math class. 2 for Isosolese? 4 for equalateral? I think.

I will swap you 2 cheese triangles for 1 cheese square...fair swap, unless its the really chunky triangles and I'll give you 1 1/2 and maybe a nice bit of toast thrown in.

an infinite number i think, you can divide a square into as many triangles as you want. but they have to be multiples of 2, or 4
