Place the dodecagons so that every third side of a dodecagon is adjacent to another. In the gaps that are formed insert four equilateral triangles so that these touch a pair of dodecagons. Finally, fill the gap between the triangles using a square.

A regular tessellation or semi-regular tessellation or none.


How do you calculate area of a triangle using the length of the diagonal of a square?

It depends on the relationship between the triangle and the square!


Using a tessellated scalene triangle what transformations can map the tessellation onto itself?

Translations, in the direction of a side of the triangle by a distance equivalent to any integer multiple of its length.Rotation about any vertex by 180 degrees.


Is a square a polygon that tesselates?

A square is one of the simplest shapes that can be tessellated. Tessellation is the means of using a repeated shape to build a larger shape with no gaps or overlaps.


Could a tessellation be made using just one of a polygon?

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

Yes it can


What is seni-regular tessellation?

There is no such thing as a seni-regular tessellation. A semi-regular tessllation is a tessellation using two regular polygons: for example, octagons and squares together.

Can tessellation be created by using equilateral triangles?

Yes.


How can you make a tessellation using only a octagon and a square when the square and the octagon have equal sides?

Start with one octagon.Place an octagon along every other side of the first octagon. This creates square gaps which can be filled using the squares. At this stage the general pattern should be evident.


What is a characesteristic of a regular tessellation?

A regular tessellation is one in which a plane is covered, without gaps or overlaps, using copies of a regular polygon.
