COMMENTS
The rectangle R whose shape (i.e., length/width) is (3+sqrt(21))/3, can be partitioned into rectangles of shapes 3/2 and 2 in a manner that matches the periodic continued fraction [2, 3/2, 2, 3/2, ...]. R can also be partitioned into squares so as to match the periodic continued fraction [2,1,1,8,1,1,2,1,1,8,1,1,2,,...]. For details, see A188635.
