Aug 14, 2021 at 16:52 comment added Joseph O'Rourke Ah, then the phrase "a Jordan polygon can be tiled with parallelograms," should be rephrased because it is false. What you meant is "Let $P$ be a Jordan polygon that can be tiled with parallelograms."
Aug 14, 2021 at 16:28 comment added jack Thanks for the reference. However in this problem it's assumed that this specific simple polygon $P$ can be tiled with parallelograms. It's an initial condition.
