Tiling a Badge with a Pair of Polyiamonds
Introduction
A polyiamond is a plane figure
formed by joining equal equilateral triangles edge to edge.
A polyiamond badge is
a six-sided polyiamond whose alternate sides have equal length.
It is a truncated equilateral triangle.
A regular hexagon and an equilateral triangle are special cases of badges.
Here I show the smallest known badges
that can be tiled by copies of two polyiamonds, using at least
one of each.
If you find a smaller solution, please write.
Carl Schwenke and Johann Schwenke contributed smaller solutions.
