Summary
| Description |
English: A 6-equidissection of a square. There are six triangles, all of equal area; they fill the square without overlapping.
The dissection is not simplicial, because the triangles that meet along the main SW-NE diagonal overhang each other without sharing a common edge. There are also simplicial n-equidissections of a square for all even n. Monsky's theorem states that there are no odd equidissections of a square. |
