Feb 8, 2017 at 15:30 comment added Ian MacDonald I expected nothing less. I wouldn't want your puzzle to be ruined, I just wanted to throw in my "gut feeling" two cents. :)
Feb 8, 2017 at 15:15 comment added Martin Rattigan @Ian MacDonald - I won't say if I think your guess is correct or not because that would possibly spoil the puzzle somewhat.
Feb 8, 2017 at 14:38 comment added Martin Rattigan @Ian MacDonald - Ah. But note the question asks for the smallest number of tiles, so any example of an acceptable tiling would not be a complete answer without a valid argument that it is impossible with fewer tiles.
Feb 8, 2017 at 14:23 comment added Ian MacDonald If I could show you an example, I would've answered the question instead of making a comment. ;)

Minor odification of small print for clarity.

Feb 8, 2017 at 12:16 comment added Martin Rattigan Please note that I have corrected the definition of polygonal tile in the small print. The original would have allowed polygonal shapes with disconnected interiors (e.g. a "bow tie of two triangles connected at a single vertex) to count as a single tile, which was not the intention. My apologies to anyone who may have been relying on that.

The tiles are not identical.
