the answer would be six since the triangle has three points and that would need to be doubled while creating line segments

Solution-

The answer is 3 because an equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides and therefore there are 3 equal angles.

Each equal angle contains an arc of equal length.

so the answer is 3 that is option A is correct.
