Tiling with rectangles

A tiling with rectangles is a tiling which uses rectangles as its parts. The domino tilings are tilings with rectangles of 1 × 2 side ratio. The tilings with straight polyominoes of shapes such as 1 × 3, 1 × 4 and tilings with polyominoes of shapes such as 2 × 3 fall also into this category.

Congruent rectangles edit

Some tiling of rectangles include:

 
Stacked bond
 
Running bond
 
Basket weave
 
Basket weave
 
Herringbone pattern

Tilings with non-congruent rectangles edit

The smallest square that can be cut into (m × n) rectangles, such that all m and n are different integers, is the 11 × 11 square, and the tiling uses five rectangles.[1]


The smallest rectangle that can be cut into (m × n) rectangles, such that all m and n are different integers, is the 9 × 13 rectangle, and the tiling uses five rectangles.[1][2]
