Base is a hexaon.

Connect the points and then use the live paint tool for filling the areas.

You created the ring?  If you did, then you are done.  Not sure what you mean.  I would create one triangle ( use the image as a template )  >  then use the reflect / rotate - copy to create a second triangle  >  repeat for the third triangle  >  Group the three triangles  >  rotate - copy the three for another set ( butt them together )  > repeat for the third set of three and Group all three sets once assembled  > Reflect - copy the three sets for the opposite side, then select all > Group.  J

Jonas,

 

You can create such a ring of individual triangles in relatively easy ways, either starting with one of the triangles or starting with the inner hexagon, as follows, Smart Guides being your friends; you can work with stroked paths, to clearly see what you are doing, with or without fill.

 

Starting with a triangle, you can:

 

1) Create the first triangle with the Polygon Tool, setting a nice round number for a radius that suits you (30 pt assumed in the following) and 3 sides;

2) Switch

Jonas,

 

You can create such a ring of individual triangles in relatively easy ways, either starting with one of the triangles or starting with the inner hexagon, as follows, Smart Guides being your friends; you can work with stroked paths, to clearly see what you are doing, with or without fill.

 

Starting with a triangle, you can:

 

1) Create the first triangle with the Polygon Tool, setting a nice round number for a radius that suits you (30 pt assumed in the following) and 3 sides;

2) Switch to the Rotate Tool, then hold Alt/Option and Click the lower left corner and insert an angle of 60 degrees in the box and click Copy to rotate a copy, then Ctrl/Cmd+D to repeat it; now you ought to have the first 3 triangles;

3) ClickDrag over all 3 triangles and Object>Transform>Rotate inserting 180 degrees and pressing Copy, then Object>Transform>Move inserting a vertical move of -4.5*30 (or whichever radius was chosen instead of 30); now you ought to have two opposite sets of 3 triangles, a total of 6;

4) ClickDrag over all 6 triangles, then Object>Transform>Rotate inserting 60 degrees and pressing Copy followed by holding Ctrl/Cmd and pressing D to repeat; now you ought to have all 18 triangles forming a hexagon.

 

Starting with the inner hexagon, you can:

 

1) Create the hexagon with the Polygon Tool, then with the Line (Segment) Tool ClickDrag between two opposite corners, then Object>Transform>Rotate inserting 60 degrees and pressing Copy followed by Ctrl/Cmd+D to repeat; now you ought to have the appearance of a hexagon consisting of 6 triangles;

2) Apply Pathfinder>Divide then hold Shift and Ctrl/Cmd and press G to Ungroup to actually have the 6 triangles;

3) ClickDrag over the top 3 triangles, then hold Shift and ClickDrag them by one of the upper corners to snap to the corresponding lower corner of the bottom 3 triangles, then hold Ctrl/Cmd and press D to repeat;

now you ought to have two opposite sets of 3 triangles, a total of 6;

4) ClickDrag over all 6 triangles, then Object>Transform>Rotate inserting 60 degrees and pressing Copy followed by holding Ctrl/Cmd and pressing D to repeat; now you ought to have all 18 triangles forming a hexagon.
