4 dimensional triangles are the same as 3 dimensional lines. They don’t exist in the 4th dimension any more than they exist in any dimension >= 3. You would need a fourth side/point in the polygon in order for it to have any position in that dimension.
(It could be a triangle in dimensions 2-4 from our perspective but to the triangle it only has 3 dimensions any way you arrange it.)
Or you can bend a triangle in another dimension(s), but then it’s not a triangle by the commonly accepted definition. (E.g a 270° “triangle” on a sphere)
