Abstract
This proof without words demonstrates that there are equilateral triangles in the regular -vertices-per-side triangular grid by describing a map from four-element subsets of into the set of equilateral triangles in this grid. Specifically, we illustrate the triangle that corresponds to the subset under this bijection when .
