Tessellation is defined as the tiling of a plane using one or more geometric shapes, called tiles, with no overlaps and no gaps. In mathematics, tessellations can be generalized to higher dimensions. A periodic tiling has a repeat pattern. A regular quadrilateral can be used by itself to make a tessellation.

Can a regular polygon with an angle measure of 160 degrees be used by itself to make a tessellation?
No, it is not possible.
Can a regular quadrilateral be used by itself to make a tessellarion?
Yes a square will tessellate on its own
Can a decagon make a tessellation?
Not a regular one.
Can you make a tessellation with a regular octagon?
No, it is not possible.
Can a semi-regular tessellation be made from octagons and rhombi?
Strictly speaking, no, because a semi-regular tessellation must be based on regular polygons and rhombi are not regular polygons. However, octagons and rhombi can be used to make a non-regular tessellation.
Can a regular hexagon be used by itself to make a tessellation?
no

How do you know when a regula polygon can be used my itself to make a tessellation?
A regular polygon will tessellate if its interior angle divides 360 evenly.
How do you know when a regular polygon can be used by itself to make a tessellation?
It can be used only if the measure of its interior angle is a factor of 360 degrees.
