Orienting Polygon to be Parallel to Nearest edge

Grasshopper
1

Hey guys,

I’m trying to get the triangles to be flat/parallel to the nearest edge of the square. As of now all triangles are flat along the x-axis, but am having trouble on figuring out how to expand this concept to adjust to each edge of the square.

Perhaps a potential method is pointing the triangles towards the square’s center then rotating it to the closest perpendicular axis?
