What can be used to make a regular tessellation?
The only shapes which will make a regular tessellation are:an equilateral trianglea squarea regular hexagon.
What is a regular polygon that tesselates?
There are only three regular polygons which can make a regular tessellation?
Can a regular PENTAGON be used to make a tessellation?
No, it cannot.
How many parellograms make a hexagon?
There can be any number (>=3) of parallelograms in a regular hexagon. If it is not a regular hexagon you may not have any.
Explain how a regular polygon with an angle measure of 135 degrees be used by itself to make a tessellation?
It is extremely difficult to explain how since it is, in fact, impossible!
What can be used to make a regular tessellation?
The only shapes which will make a regular tessellation are:an equilateral trianglea squarea regular hexagon.
There are only 3 regular polygons which can make a regular tessellation?
Triangle, square, hexagon.
Can a regular nonagon 1260 degrees be used by itself to make a tessellation?
No.
Can a regular polygon with an angle measure 160 be used by itself to make a tessellation?
Yes it can
Does a hexagon tesselate?
Yes they do. In fact the honeycomb that bees make is a natural tessellation of the hexagon.
Can a regular quadrilateral be used by itself to make a tessellation?
Tessellation is defined as the tiling of a plane using one or more geometric shapes, called tiles, with no overlaps and no gaps. In mathematics, tessellations can be generalized to higher dimensions. A periodic tiling has a repeat pattern. A regular quadrilateral can be used by itself to make a tessellation.
Can a regular polygon with an angle measure of 160 degrees be used by itself to make a tessellation?
No, it is not possible.
Which regular polygon can be used by itself to make a tessellation?
The only regular polygons are those with 3, 4 or 6 sides.
What shape can be used to make a regular tessellation?
Only an equilateral triangle, square and a regular hexagon can be used to make regular tessellations but there are innumerable polygonal and non-polygonal shapes which will tessellate by themselves, and others which will tessellate along with other shapes.
Can a decagon make a tessellation?
Not a regular one.
Can you make a tessellation with a regular octagon?
No, it is not possible.
Can a semi-regular tessellation be made from octagons and rhombi?
Strictly speaking, no, because a semi-regular tessellation must be based on regular polygons and rhombi are not regular polygons. However, octagons and rhombi can be used to make a non-regular tessellation.
