Call the pentominoes found in the last problem square pentominoes. Just like dominos and ominos can be used to tile regions of the plane, so can square pentominoes. In particular, a square pentomino tiling of a region of the plane is a way of covering it (and only it) completely by nonoverlapping square pentominoes.
