FORMULA
EXAMPLE
a(2)=12 because the 6 line segments mutually connecting the vertices and the mid-side nodes form 12 congruent right triangles of two different sizes.
a(3)=75: 48 triangles, 24 quadrilaterals and 3 pentagons are formed. See pictures at Pfoertner link.
CROSSREFS
Cf. A092866 (number of intersections), A274585 (number of points both inside and on the triangle sides), A274586 (number of edges), A331911 (number of n-gons).
Cf. A092098 (regions in triangle cut by line segments connecting vertices with subdivision points on opposite side), A006533 (regions formed by all diagonals in regular n-gon), A002717 (triangles in triangular matchstick arrangement).
If the boundary points are in general position, we get A367117, A213827, A367118, A367119. - N. J. A. Sloane, Nov 09 2023
