So start with an upper case H, and then draw $3$ straight lines. What is the greatest number of closed triangles that you can form? For example:
Note that triangles inside of triangles only count once (e.g. 5 & 6 in the image don't count):
And you aren't allowed to extend the cross line of the H (e.g. 5 in the image doesn't count)

Decrease the angle between three red lines and rotate them ccw slightly. Now two rightmost red lines in the original form will make another triangle with the right pillar of H. According to OP only extending the cross line is not allowed.
