A regular pentagon cannot tessellate, as its interior angles (108 degrees) do not allow for a perfect fit without gaps when combined with other shapes. However, certain irregular pentagons can tessellate under specific conditions. These irregular pentagons can be designed in such a way that their angles and sides allow them to fill a plane completely without leaving any gaps.
A regular octagon will not tessellate but an irregular one will.
They can, so the question is totally misguided.
