Any equilateral triangle has 3 angles of 60° each as all the angles have to add to 360° and there must be 3 equal sides. As no side length is specified you can make infinitely many different equilateral triangles provided they all have different side lengths.

Answer:

D. Infinitely many

Explanation:

In this case, the number of equilateral triangles we could make is restricted by the length of its sides. However, this problem doesn't restrict any side, it doesn't specifies a length for all sides, it only gives the angles, which have to be equal to 60° because it's a equilateral triangle.

This means that we could make infinitely many triangles with angles of 60°, it could be a triangles with sides of 1 unit long, 2 units, or 100 units long, all of them would have angles of 60°.

Therefore, the right answer is D.
