The different triangles in figure GIK are GPO, GPQ, GOQ, GMN, GMK, GNL, GJI, GJK, GIK
Number of triangles in figure GIK = 9
The different triangles in figure ABGI are AHB, BHG, GHI, IHA, AGI, AGB, BAI, BGI
Number of triangles in figure ABGI = 8
Figure BCEG is similar to figure ABGI. So number of triangles in figure BCEG is equal to number of triangles in figure ABGI.
$$\Rightarrow$$ Number of triangles in figure BCEG = 8
The remaining triangles in the given figure are IBE, GCD, AGE, CED, BIK
Number of remaining triangles in the given figure = 5
$$\therefore\ $$Total number of triangles in the given figure = 9 + 8 + 8 + 5 = 30
Hence, the correct answer is Option D
