TOKYO -- A Japan-U.S. research team on March 10 offered a mathematical proof that "Dudeney's dissection," a challenge to cut an equilateral triangle and use the parts to create a square with the ...

In 1907, the English author and mathematician Henry Ernest Dudeney posed a puzzle: Can any equilateral triangle be cut into as few pieces as possible that will fit together to form a perfect square?
