It seems if a regular n-gon will work, a regular 2n-gon will work.


Incidentally, it seems a nonagon would work also.  If we label it ABCDEFGHI, connect A to C, C to E, E to G, G to I, I to E, and E to A.  You have triangles ABC, CDE, EFG, GHI, IGE, ACE, and IAE.

I'm still trying to find a pattern.
