Finding endpoints of a triangle surface

Hi there,

I'm hoping someone can help me out with what seems like something embarrassingly simple, but I just can't work it out. 

I am designing a simple skin for an existing building. Currently triangular surface panels rotate around an axis defined by a grid applied to a surface. What I would like to do is attach the left and right rotating panels to the endpoints of the top and bottom rotating panels. To do this I need to be able to find the corner points of the triangles, and separate them into single points.

At the moment I'm trying to list item but it isn't able to pull out just single points. Does anyone have any ideas?

I have included my files for reference.

Hope to hear from someone soon. Thanks!

It will be the same way you found the corner points of the original sub surfaces. Only this time the out put will be one less.

Thanks for your help!
When I got into uni last night someone showed me this same thing also. So it was all sorted out pretty quickly.

Thanks!
