Why doesn't a semi regular tessellation with vertex configuration 346 work?

The question cannot be answered because it is based on the incorrect assertion that a semi-regular tessellation does not work. Sorry, but it does work!

How many regular hexagons meet at a vertex to form a regular tessellation?

What is the difference in a regular and semi-regular tessellation?
A regular tessellation is based on multiple copies of the same regular polygon. A semi-regular tessellation uses copies of two (or more) regular polygons. In the latter case, at each vertex the various polygons are arrayed in the same order (or its mirror image).
How do you name a tessellation?
Tessellations are named based on the number of polygons located at a vertex. For example: A regular tessellation, made from only triangles is named 3.3.3
In a tessellation the angles of the regular polygons around a given vertex what do they always add up to?
They add to 360 degrees.
Why can a regular hexagon not be the face of a platonic solid?
Three regular hexagons meeting at a vertex would form a tessellation. So they would form a plane not a solid.
What is a semi regular tessellation?
Semi-regular tessellation is a tessellation of the plane by 2 or more different convex regular polygons. A semi-regular tessellation combines two or more regular polygons. Each semi-regular tessellation has a tupelo, which designates what kind of regular polygon is used.

Does a semi-regular tessellation have a vertex of 360 degress?
Yes. Regular or irregular, the angles at vertices must sum to 360 deg otherwise you will have gaps in the tessellation.

What is a tessellation vertex?
I don't know what a tessellation vertex is but I will try to Answer it I think it means the endpoint of a vertex which is also called vertices,which is the pointy ends of the vertex.

They add to 360 degrees.
What describes a semi regular tessellation?
A semi-regular tessellation is covering a plane surface with two or more different regular polygons, all of which have sides of the same length. In addition, each polygon vertex is surrounded by polygons in the same order.

Tessellation that use more than one type of regular polygon are called semi-regular tessellations?
A tessellation that uses more than one type of regular polygon in an isogonal arrangement is known as a emu-regular tessellation. There are eight semi-regular tessellations that can be described by their vertex configuration.Ê
