Here's how far I got:
- if no bad angles, all done
- if one bad angle, will need to split it
- if a line hits an edge, it causes a problem
- so if we hit an edge at all, we need two lines hitting an edge at that point
- if we make a new triangle, it's always safe to make it isoceles (but is it always possible?)
- we're making new lines, we'll need interior points
- if several new line ends meet at one point, we'll need at least five meeting
And here's a sketch of how it might work, if it can be made to work:
