Pentomino Odd Triples

Livio Zucca's Pentomino Odd Pairs studies the problem of finding a compatibility figure for two pentominoes with an odd number of tiles. His Triple Pentominoes studies the problem of finding a compatibility figure for three pentominoes.

Here I combine Zucca's two problems and show compatibility figures for three pentominoes with an odd number of tiles!

The Master At Work

Zucca was the first to solve the case 5P+5X+5Y:

His solution has 61 tiles! Smaller solutions have since been found. See the table below.
