Have you ever used the "tri-rec" ruler? I love it and have used it for years. The ruler eliminates the problem of where to align the fabric for that pointy triangle! Many uses - "storm at sea" etc. it also helps with the left/right opposing side triangles.

there is an easy way to strip piece the block on the left by making 5 x 5 blocks, alternating white and bright squares. you will have 25 squares, and there is some waste in triangles that you can use in something else. make a large template of the block shown and lay over the 5 x 5 square block. Cut leaving points that show when sewn together. i love strip piecing and this would be quicker for me instead of making triangles to sew together one at a time.
