Can a pentagon be tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?

Triangle, square and hexagon
Which regular polygons can tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
Equilateral triangle, square and regular hexagon.
Do Congruent regular pentagon's tessellate a plane?
No because the angles are not factors of 360 degrees

yes
Can a tesellation be created with any shape you can think of?
No. Multiple copies of the shape - whether arranged side-by-side or in an interlocking pattern, must cover a plane area without gaps or overlaps. A circle or regular pentagon, for example, will not tessellate.
Describe a combination of a regular octagon and another regular polygon that will tessellate the plane?
A regular octagon can tessellate the plane when combined with regular squares. By placing a square in the center of the octagon and surrounding it with eight octagons, the shapes can be repeated infinitely, filling the plane without gaps or overlaps
Can heptagon tessellate?
No. Equilateral heptagons (7 sided figures) do not tessellate the plane. Not if no other polygons are allowed. But if you allow a (non-equilateral) pentagon then you might be able to tessellate the plane!
Is a rectangle tessellate?
The rectangle is the simplest and most obvious case of a geometrical form that can tile a plane.
