FORMULA

Binomial[3(n+1), 3] - 3*binomial[n+2, 3] where n>0

EXAMPLE

5 points are put on each side of a triangle (n = 5); we then have 18 vertices to construct with: 5 * 3 + 3 originals. The number of total arrangements = combi(18,3) : combi[3(n+1),3]. But these include degenerates along the 3 sides: 7 points on each side, so combi(7,3) on each side : 3 * combi[n+2, 3] combi[18,3] - 3 * combi[7,3] = 816 - 105 = 711
