Is it possible to tile a floor with a pentagons?
Not with regular pentagons because each interior angle is 108 degrees which is not a factor of 360 degrees
What is a pentegon from?
Pentagons are 5 sided shapes that have 5 angles and 1of them equal 108 degrees
Is it possible to create a tesselation using only regular pentagons?
No because each interior angle is 108 degrees which is not a factor of 360 degrees
What are the angles-in degrees-of a regular pentagon?
108 degrees determined by the formula 180(sides - 2) / sides remember that
Why cant a regular pentagon be used to create a regular tessellation?
it can tessellate * * * * * NO IT CANNOT! A regular polygon can be used to create a regular tesselation if and only if its interior angle divides 360 degrees. The interior angle of a regular pentagon is 108 degrees, which does not divide 360 degrees so it cannot be used for a regular tesselation. . Three pentagons meeting at a point would cover 3*108 = 324 degrees - not enough to cover the 360 degrees at a point. Meanwhile 4 pentagons would cover 4*108 = 432 degrees - resulting in a 72 degree overlap.

If the exterior angle of a regular polygon is 108 degrees how many sides does the polygon have?
That's true if the interior angles are 108 degrees, but a regular polygon cannot have exterior angles of 108 degrees.

Why can't regular pentagons tesselate?
Because the measure of each angle in a pentagon is 108 degrees, which 360 can't be divided evenly by, so pentagons don't tessellate because their is always a little extra space left over.
How many sides does a polygon with an interior angle measure of 108 degrees have?
If its a regular pentagon then it will have 5 sides
How many degrees do a 5 sided shape has?
If all sides have equal length (i.e. if it is a regular pentagon), then each (interior) angle has 108 degrees, for a total of 5*(108 degrees) = 540 degrees.
What is the mesure of an interior angle of a regular polygon of five sides?
108 degrees
How many sides does a regular polygon have if each exterior angle is 2520 degrees?
An exterior angle of 2520 degrees is impossible. Assuming you mean 252 degrees, this would make each interior angle 108 degrees, as 360- 252 = 108. A regular polygon with 108-degree interior angles has 5 sides, or in other words, it is a regular pentagon.
How many sides does a regular polygon have if its each angle is of measure 108 degree?
If each of its interior angles is a measure of 108 degrees then it will have 5 sides and is called a regular pentagon.
