The winners of first AGMC in 2019 gifts the person in charge of the organiser, which is a polyhedron formed by $60$ congruent triangles. From the photo, we can see that this polyhedron formed by $60$ quadrilateral spaces.
(Note: You can find the photo in 3.4 of [url]https://files.alicdn.com/tpsservice/18c5c7b31a7074edc58abb48175ae4c3.pdf?spm=a1zmmc.index.0.0.51c0719dNAbw3C&file=18c5c7b31a7074edc58abb48175ae4c3.pdf[/url])
A quadrilateral space is the plane figures that we fold the figures following the diagonal on a $n$ sides on a plane (i.e. form an appropriate dihedral angle in where the chosen diagonal is). "Two figure spaces are congruent" means they can coincide completely by isometric transform in $\mathbb{R}^3$. A polyhedron is the bounded space region, whose boundary is formed by the common edge of finite polygon.
(a) We know that $2021=43\times 47$. Does there exist a polyhedron, whose surface can be formed by $43$ congruent $47$-gon?
(b) Prove your answer in (a) with logical explanation.
