A more formal description of partitioning. Let triangle $ABC$ be given. We choose two points on its sides so that they go in the order $AC_1C_2BA_1A_2CB_1B_2$, and no two coincide. In addition, the segments $C_1A_2$, $A_1B_2$ and $B_1C_2$ must intersect at one point. Then the partition is given by segments $C_1A_2$, $A_1B_2$, $B_1C_2$, $A_1C_2$, $B_1A_2$ and $C_1B_2$.

At least how many regular triangles are needed to cover the lines of the following diagram? [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/e/3/4de2ed2c7cc9421d7d060f0bc537ccaa3838fc.png[/img]
(Only the perimeter of the triangles is involved in the covering, and the entire perimeter need not be incident on the diagram.)
