Hi Linda - I assume you have the 60° triangle as recommended in the book(s) by Maxine Rosenthal? Have you checked out the photos showing how to place the triangle on the strip? I use her technique of making my right hand cut, then butting a square ruler up against the left side of the triangle, taking the triangle away then making the second cut. If you're using the 60° line on your ruler, I think you have to turn the ruler to make each cut, this too is explained, with photos in the book. :-D

You should be making 60 degree cuts in order to have an equalateral triangle.
