Can you tessellate a triangle and a pentagon together?
yes you can tessellate a triangle and a pentagon together.
Why do shapes tessellate?
Shapes tessellate to fit around an interior angle. They also tessellate because they are regular polygons; non-regular polygons cannot tessellate. * * * * * Not correct. All triangles and quadrilaterals will tessellate, whether regular or irregular. Contrary to the above answer, a regular pentagon will not tessellate but there are 14 different irregular pentagons which will tessellate (the last was discovered in 2015). Three convex hexagons will do so as well. No polygon of 7 or more sides will tessellate - whether they are regular (contrary to the above answer) or irregular.
Can irregular polygons tessellate?
Some can, but not all. For example, rhombi, rhomboids, oblongs, and isosceles triangles can tessellate; however, most irregular polygons cannot. * * * * * True, but an incomplete answer. All triangles and quadrilaterals, whether regular or irregular, will tessellate. No regular pentagon will tessellate but (as of 2016), there are 15 irregular pentagons which will tessellate. There are 3 convex hexagons, (regular and 2 irregular) which will tessellate. No polygon with 7 or more sides, even if it is regular, will tessellate.
Does a pentagon tessellate?
yes
Does pentagon shape tessellate?
Yes it does tesselate.
What shape can't you tessellate?
A regular pentagon will not tessellate.
Will a regular pentagon tessellate?
no
Will a regular pentagon and rectangle tessellate?
No
Which regular polygon will not tessellate by itself?
A regular pentagon
Can a square and a pentagon tessellate?
No, a square and a pentagon cannot tessellate together. In order for two shapes to tessellate, their angles must add up to a multiple of 360 degrees. A square has angles of 90 degrees, while a regular pentagon has angles of 108 degrees. Since 90 and 108 do not add up to a multiple of 360, these shapes cannot tessellate together.
Can a regular pentagon tessellate without overlaps or gaps?
the answer is yes
Can a regular pentagon tessellate by it self?
no. only irregular pentalgons can tesselate
Does a regular pentagon tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
yes no yes no
Can regular pentagon tessellate by themselves?
"yes"The answer above is incorrect. it was proven hundreds of years ago that regular pentagons do NOT tessellate. there are methods for tessellating pentagons, but they are not regularpentagons.yes the answer in the middle is write polygons can not tessellate
Do Congruent regular pentagon's tessellate a plane?
No because the angles are not factors of 360 degrees
Can you tessellate a triangle and a pentagon together?
yes you can tessellate a triangle and a pentagon together.
