If you do not know how to do an equilateral triangle, take a rectangle, fold the short side in half, unfold and then divide in three one of the 90° angles. you can do this by trial an error or using one of the methods described in:
http://pr.caltech.edu/periodicals/EandS ... igami.html
http://www.jimloy.com/geometry/trisect.htm

So 2 of these 3 divisions will make 60°. Project that crease until it touches the crease from the first step and then from that point fold to the other raw corner and you will have your equilateral triangle
