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.

In addition, there are 3 classes of irregular convex hexagons which will tessellate.All other convex polygons will not tessellate.
The only regular polygons which will tessellate are those with 3, 4 or 6 sides. But all irregular triangles, all irregular quadrilaterals, 15 classes of irregular convex pentagons and 3 classes of irregular convex hexagons will tessellate. In addition, there are concave polygons with different numbers of sides which will also tessellate.
There is no simple way.All triangles will tessellate. All quadrilaterals will tessellate There are 15 classes of convex pentagons (the latest discovered in 2015) which will tessellate. Regular hexagons will tessellate. In addition, there are 3 classes of irregular convex hexagons which will tessellate. No convex polygon with 7 or more sides will tessellate.In addition, there are concave polygons, and non-polygons which will tessellate.
It is extremely difficult. In fact the 15 class of pentagon was only discovered in 2015.All triangles will tessellate. All quadrilaterals will tessellate 15 classes of irregular convex pentagons will tessellate. Regular hexagons will tessellate as will 3 classes of irregular convex hexagons which will tessellate. No convex polygon with 7 or more sides will tessellate.Then, there are concave polygons as well as non-polygonal shapes which will tessellate. One interesting collection of examples is MC Escher's set of symmetric artwork from 1942, mostly watercolours.
