There is no way to make a triangle with numbers 2,8,14, nor 2,8,16, nor 2,14, and 16. Using 6, 14, and 16 straws, you can form a triangle.

I'm guessing you're not supposed to stick any one of the straws together. Kindly see the accompanying document for more information.
As a result, B is represented by one triangle.
All two sides add up to more than the third side.
As a result, the difference between the two sides is less than the difference between the first and third sides.

Therefore, the final answer is "one triangle".
