Comments

The rectangle R whose shape (i.e., length/width) is sqrt(3+x+sqrt(9+6x)), where x=sqrt(6), can be partitioned into rectangles of shapes sqrt(3) and sqrt(2) in a manner that matches the periodic continued fraction [sqrt(3), sqrt(2), sqrt(3), sqrt(2), ...]. R can also be partitioned into squares so as to match the nonperiodic continued fraction [2,3,1,2,5,2,1,5,95,1,...] at A190257. For details, see A188635.
