No need for mathematical formulae here.  Just draw it and count them.  FIVE

Please think your answer out before you post it. Five is impossible.

Rubbish Pangolin,

Guest gave you some good advice.

Draw it and count!

There's a better way than drawing and counting, I can't keep track of it all.

But I noticed that for every 2 lines, they add 6 new angles.

That is not correct

 

But you are right you can get a pattern going.

 

To determine the pattern you draw lines and COUNT!

There is a lot more than that.

Guest has only found the simplest ones.

Look again guest.

Ohhhh.... yes.  I'm going to take some time off.  This is the second time I've overlooked the simplest thing.

People learn through their mistakes.  It is no big deal.
