Abstract: Nandakumar asked whether there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise non-congruent triangles of equal area and equal perimeter. Here a weaker result is obtained: there is a tiling of the plane by pairwise non-congruent triangles of equal area such that their perimeter is bounded by some common constant. Several variants of the problem are stated, some of them are answered.


This is a new paper on Discrete Geometry dealing with tilings of the plane by triangles. It is based on a question proposed by R. Nandakumar in 2014. ``Can the plane be filled by two non-congruent triangles with the same area and perimeter? \par The author achieves a partially positive answer of this problem. Several variants of such a problem are also formulated and addressed. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1400.52002].
