You should share your component so we can see what it is you have and are trying to do.

What operating system are you using? What graphics card? Please correct your profile.

To create a triangle with individual sides you would make each line a group or component, however you cannot make a surface.

To make a surface that covers all the triangles you would need four right-hand triangles, where at times one or two would be hidden. (when hidden they can be reduced to be insignificant)

So a combination of the surfaces with their outlines hidden and the individual lines will be able to cover all types of triangles.

As Dave says, give an example for further advice, be aware you will need to be familiar with trigonometry, cosine and sine rules

so its a question about animation involving axis and rotation  
one method is to isolate the movement within an extra layer of nesting, first example has the group with on-click and the parent component as the isolated “world” for it to correctly perform. each leaf opens independently  
the second example works with one on-click in the parent, with the change pass through
