What do the angles in a diamond add up to?
360 degrees (since it is a quadrilateral). Diamonds will also tesselate the plane.
What regular polygons tessellate by themselves?
Triangles, squares and hexagons will tesselate with themselves. If you want to know why, calculate the angle measure for each of these shapes and you will see that each is a factor of 360. The same cannot be said for pentagons, heptagons, etc.
Why can't regular pentagons tesselate?
Because the measure of each angle in a pentagon is 108 degrees, which 360 can't be divided evenly by, so pentagons don't tessellate because their is always a little extra space left over.
