The purpose of the paper is to study how to solve a type of matrix games with payoffs of triangular fuzzy numbers. In this paper, the value of a matrix game with payoffs of triangular fuzzy numbers has been considered as a variable of the triangular fuzzy number. First, based on two auxiliary linear programming models of a classical matrix game and the operations of triangular fuzzy numbers, fuzzy optimization problems are established for two players. Then, based on the order relation of triangular fuzzy numbers the fuzzy optimization problems for players are decomposed into three-objective linear programming models. Finally, using the lexicographic method maximin and minimax strategies for players and the fuzzy value of the matrix game with payoffs of triangular fuzzy numbers can be obtained through solving two corresponding auxiliary linear programming problems, which are easily computed using the existing Simplex method for the linear programming problem. It has been shown that the models proposed in this paper extend the classical matrix game models. A numerical example is provided to illustrate the methodology.
