Can a octagon tile a flat surface alone?
A regular octagon cannot tile a flat surface, it needs squares as fillers. An irregular octagon can tile a flat surface alone.
Can copies of a decagon be used to tile a surface?
Yep. ^.^
Is it possible to tile a floor with copies of a regular polygon?
Yes, but only with some polygons.
Which regular polygons will fit together to tile a flat surface?
Triangles, squares and hexagons. That is if they all have to be the same. If you use different regular polygons, you can tile a flat surface with triangles and 12-sides or with squares and 8-sides for example.
How can you tell if a polygon will tile plane?
A regular polygon will tile it if its internal angle divides 360 degrees.

What type of underlayment do you need when installing tile floor?
Before installing tile flooring, you need a clean FLAT surface. Tile is not a flexible material so the flat surface ensures the tile will match up correctly. You also need to sand the underneath flooring so that the grout and tile cement will be able to form a cohesive nature with tile and permanently fix the tile to the surface.

When were ancient roman mosaics made?
Mosaics are made of small pieces of tile which form a design or a picture. This picture is affixed to a flat surface, usually a floor. You can liken them to our present day ceramic tile floors.Mosaics are made of small pieces of tile which form a design or a picture. This picture is affixed to a flat surface, usually a floor.

How can you tell if a polygon will tile plane?
A regular polygon will tile it if its internal angle divides 360 degrees.
Can you cover rough slate tiles with linoleum?
Linoleum must be on a firm flat surface. It is recommended that the tile be removed.
Can copies of a dodecagon be used to tile a surface?
no it can't If each angle is 150 so 150 times anything does not equal 360 * * * * * A correct answer but incorrect reasoning. First, there is no requirement in the question that the polygon is regular so the each angle need not be 150 degrees. As a counter-example to your reasoning, each interior angle of a regular pentagon is 108 degrees. 108 times anything does not equal 360. Yet there are 14 different non-regular pentagons which can be used to tile a surface.
Can a regular polygon always tile the plane?
Not always
Can you tile over kitchen carpet?
Not really...for tile to be properly set it must be on a hard surface. A carpeted surface will not provide the hard surface needed for tile to properly bond.
Will a Right Triangle Tile by itself or when combined with another polygon?
