We begin with a right isosceles Sierpinski gasket. Certainly,
the gasket can be viewed as made up of three copies of itself, each scaled by a
factor of 1/2 in both the x- and y-directions. |

To determine the translation amount of each piece, take
some point of the whole fractal (the lower left corner, for example) and
observe where that point goes in each piece. |
Here we derive the rules for the right isosceles Sierpinski gasket.
