0 Guest Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 (edited) if it's equilateral, then simply the angle bisectors will do. if it's scalene, then the three medians will do. Edited April 10, 2010 by phillip1882 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 if it's equilateral he can divide it like a Sierpinski triangle: three triangles within the greater triangle...or does he have to use all the space within the site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
