[comp.sources.wanted] dissection into equal triangles

ddks@cs.Princeton.EDU (Daniel Sleator) (03/14/90)

Can any polygon be dissected into triangles of equal area?

Equivalently, can any quadrilateral be dissected into triangles of equal
area?

This unsolved (as far as I know) problem came up in an undergraduate
class at Princeton, and was told to me by John Conway.
