Since a polygon has 20 sides, total number of triangles can be drawn = ![C presuperscript 20 subscript 3 equals 1140](https://images.topperlearning.com/topper/tinymce/cache/9eb118158267cbc6078befa2980fb64c.png)

Using, one side of polygon, number of triangles that can be drawn = 16
Then, for 20 sides, number of triangles that can be drawn = 16 x 20 = 320
Using, two side of polygon, number of triangles that can be drawn = 20
Therefore, total number of triangles that can be drawn = 1140 - 320 - 20 = 800
