No. Because tessellation is about using lost (infinitely many) copies of a polygon to cover a surface, One polygon does not comprise a tessellation.

What is a pure tessellation?

A pure tessellation is a tiling of a plane using one single type of regular polygon, such as triangles, squares, or hexagons, without any gaps or overlaps. The polygons fit together perfectly to cover the entire plane, creating a repeating pattern that extends infinitely in all directions. Pure tessellations are often found in art, architecture, and mathematics due to their aesthetic appeal and mathematical properties.

What does a power polygon look like?

From what I have been able to find out (using my daughter's homework) is that "Power Polygons" are any "normal" polygon that can be combined with another "normal" polygon to form another, different looking polygon (a mega-polygon, I guess?)that you can then divide up so you can see the individual "Power Polygon" pieces. Perhaps the name "Power Polygons" is derived from the fact that these polygons have the power to create other polygons. Logically then a "Power Polygon" is, really, just any polygon, just with a new, exciting, and high tech sounding name.
