How many right does a pentagon have?
A pentagon has 5 sides.A regular pentagon has no right angles (5 interior angles each 108 degrees).An irregular pentagon can have at most 3 right angles, because a 4th would leave 180 degrees to be used for the final angle (540-360), which is a straight line.
Why cant a regular pentagon be used to create a regular tessellation?
it can tessellate * * * * * NO IT CANNOT! A regular polygon can be used to create a regular tesselation if and only if its interior angle divides 360 degrees. The interior angle of a regular pentagon is 108 degrees, which does not divide 360 degrees so it cannot be used for a regular tesselation. . Three pentagons meeting at a point would cover 3*108 = 324 degrees - not enough to cover the 360 degrees at a point. Meanwhile 4 pentagons would cover 4*108 = 432 degrees - resulting in a 72 degree overlap.

Can copies of a dodecagon be used to tile a surface?
no it can't If each angle is 150 so 150 times anything does not equal 360 * * * * * A correct answer but incorrect reasoning. First, there is no requirement in the question that the polygon is regular so the each angle need not be 150 degrees. As a counter-example to your reasoning, each interior angle of a regular pentagon is 108 degrees. 108 times anything does not equal 360. Yet there are 14 different non-regular pentagons which can be used to tile a surface.
