\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "You should build a pattern of ordered pairs (t,p)
\n" ); document.write( "where t is the number of triangles and p is the perimeter.
\n" ); document.write( "Start with t = 1, then t = 2, etc.
\n" ); document.write( "Try to detect a pattern in the relation of p to t.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Then let t = n and find the corresponding P(n).
