Using the "fire tetrahedron", rather than triangle, you could also stop a fire by breaking the chemical chain reaction that keeps the fire burning.
The four primary ways to extinguish a fire are by removing one or more elements of the fire triangle: heat, fuel, and oxygen. This can be achieved through cooling (using water or fire extinguishers), smothering (covering the fire to cut off oxygen), starving (removing fuel sources), or interrupting the chemical reaction (using fire retardants). Each method targets different aspects of the fire to effectively stop it from burning.
