What else can I help you with?
Does an equilateral triangle tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
yes
Which ragular polygons can tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
Equilateral triangle, square and regular hexagon.
Which regular polygons can tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
Equilateral triangle, square and regular hexagon.
Is an equilateral triangle always a right triangle?
No, never in plane geometry.
Which polygons will tile the plane?
If it's interior angle is a factor of 360 then it will tessellate such as a square, a regular hexagon and an equilateral triangle.
Does every equilateral tessellates a plane?
No. An equilateral polygon with 5 or with 7 or more sides will not tessellate a plane.
Will a regular isosceles triangle tessellate?
No, a regular isosceles triangle will not tessellate. In order for a shape to tessellate, it must be able to fit together with copies of itself without any gaps or overlaps. Regular isosceles triangles have angles of 90, 45, and 45 degrees, which do not allow for a repeating pattern that covers a plane without any spaces. Regular polygons that tessellate include equilateral triangles, squares, and hexagons.
How do you know the measure of each angle in an equilateral triangle using what you know about equilateral triangles and the degree measure of a circle or a straight angle?
the sum of the angles of a plane triangle is always 180° In an equilateral triangle, each of the angles is = Therefore, the angles of an equilateral triangle are 60°
Is it possible to tessellate a plane by using any single type of regular polygon?
No because a regular polygon will only tessellate if its interior angle is a factor of 360 degrees. For example an equilateral triangle will tessellate because its interior angle is 60 degrees which is a factor of 360 degrees.
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!
What is a plane triangle?
a plane triangle is a normal triangle, like the isosceles, right angled, equilateral and scalene triangle.
Can a regular heptagon and equilateral triangle tile a plane?
No
