But this is only if you are doing the method of sewing a diagonal line across the side squares, which is my preferred way of doing it. Sounded like the OP likes to cut out triangles and I can't help with those measurements.
Maybe the thing to do is make one using this method, then take it apart to measure each of the triangles. Or would it work to cut each triangle as if you were going to make half-square triangles? That would be a 2-7/8" square cut diagonally for each of the corners and a 4-7/8" square cut diagonally for the larger part of the block.
