To find the number of triangular bases, we need to determine the number of square pyramids and pentagonal pyramids and then find the number of triangular bases in each.

There are 3 square pyramids and each square pyramid has 1 triangular base. So, the square pyramids have a total of 3 triangular bases.

There are 2 pentagonal pyramids and each pentagonal pyramid also has 1 triangular base. So, the pentagonal pyramids have a total of 2 triangular bases.

Therefore, the total number of triangular bases among the 3 square pyramids and 2 pentagonal pyramids is 3 + 2 = 5. Answer: \boxed{5}.

Apologies for the mistake. Upon rereading the question, it is clear that the 3 square pyramids and 2 pentagonal pyramids each have a single triangular base, as the base of a pyramid is always a polygon.

Therefore, the total number of triangular bases is 3 + 2 = 5. Answer: \boxed{5}.

Apologies for the confusion. Let's break down the shapes and find the correct answer.

Among the 3 square pyramids, each pyramid has a triangular base. So, there are 3 triangular bases for the square pyramids.

Among the 2 pentagonal pyramids, each pyramid also has a triangular base. So, there are 2 triangular bases for the pentagonal pyramids.

In total, there are 3 + 2 = 5 triangular bases among the 3 square pyramids and 2 pentagonal pyramids.

Therefore, the correct answer is \boxed{5}.
