  2. Dividing a square into similar rectangles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dividing_a_square_into...

    The problem has two parts: what aspect ratios are possible, and how many different solutions are there for a given n. [7] Frieling and Rinne had previously published a result in 1994 that states that the aspect ratio of rectangles in these dissections must be an algebraic number and that each of its conjugates must have a positive real part.

  3. Pythagorean theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_theorem

    The large square is divided into a left and right rectangle. A triangle is constructed that has half the area of the left rectangle. Then another triangle is constructed that has half the area of the square on the left-most side. These two triangles are shown to be congruent, proving this square has the same area as the left rectangle. This ...

  4. Circle packing in a square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing_in_a_square

    Circle packing in a square is a packing problem in recreational mathematics, where the aim is to pack n unit circles into the smallest possible square. Equivalently, the problem is to arrange n points in a unit square aiming to get the greatest minimal separation, d n, between points. [1] To convert between these two formulations of the problem ...

  5. Completing the square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completing_the_square

    Consider completing the square for the equation + =. Since x 2 represents the area of a square with side of length x, and bx represents the area of a rectangle with sides b and x, the process of completing the square can be viewed as visual manipulation of rectangles.

  6. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    A = lw (rectangle). That is, the area of the rectangle is the length multiplied by the width. As a special case, as l = w in the case of a square, the area of a square with side length s is given by the formula: [1] [2] A = s 2 (square). The formula for the area of a rectangle follows directly from the basic properties of area, and is sometimes ...

  7. Missing square puzzle - Wikipedia

    Splitting the thin parallelogram area (yellow) into little parts, and building a single unit square with them The key to the puzzle is the fact that neither of the 13×5 "triangles" is truly a triangle, nor would either truly be 13x5 if it were, because what appears to be the hypotenuse is bent.

  9. Largest empty rectangle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Largest_empty_rectangle

    The case when the sought rectangle is an axis-oriented square may be treated using Voronoi diagrams in metrics for the corresponding obstacle set, similarly to the largest empty circle problem. In particular, for the case of points within rectangle an optimal algorithm of time complexity Θ ( n log ⁡ n ) {\displaystyle \Theta (n\log n)} is known.
