COMMENT

All even n>2 are present by generalizing this corner+border construction, all odd n>5 are present because n+3 can be obtained from n by splitting any single square into four, 1 is trivially present and n=2, 3 & 5 are then fairly easily eliminated.

Also number of smaller similar triangles into which a triangle may be dissected. - Lekraj Beedassy (blekraj(AT)yahoo.com), Nov 25 2003
