Tessellation is covering a 2-d surface. Tessellation and making a 3-d shape are not compatible processes.
12 regular pentagons will form a dodecahedron.
There are infinitely many. For example, every different triangle can tessellate. There are 15 types of pentagons which will tessellate.
Out of a hexagon, only a hexagon.If you have many hexagons, they can tessellate a plane, although the boundaries of this shape will be concave in parts.Out of a hexagon, only a hexagon.If you have many hexagons, they can tessellate a plane, although the boundaries of this shape will be concave in parts.Out of a hexagon, only a hexagon.If you have many hexagons, they can tessellate a plane, although the boundaries of this shape will be concave in parts.Out of a hexagon, only a hexagon.If you have many hexagons, they can tessellate a plane, although the boundaries of this shape will be concave in parts.
The 3D shape formed by regular pentagons is a dodecahedron, which has 30 edges.
Just the one and it will be the base of the pyramid.
there are 12 black and 20 white pentagons. the shape is a pentagon and there are 32 shapes on a soccer ball.

All triangles will tessellate. All quadrilaterals will tessellate.There are 15 classes of irregular 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.There are many concave polygonal shapes as well as non-polygonal shapes which will tessellate. For example of the latter, look for MC Escher's symmetric artwork on the web.
If you are thinking of a solid with pentagonal faces, a dodecahedron, there are twelve pentagons
There are many shapes: circles, ellipses, ovals (elongated circles), cardioids, any shape with a "hole" in it such as a annulus.Polygons will tessellate if combined with other suitable polygons.
The 3D shape formed by regular pentagons is a dodecahedron, which has 30 edges.
hexagons work because each angle is 120 degress, as you say, and 3 times 120 equals 360 degrees. So three hexagons will surround a point with no 'space" left over. but the interior angle of a pentagon is108 degrees. three pentagons together only fill up 3 time 108, or 324 degrees. There is space left over. But four pentagons would overlap. so 3 is not enough and 4 is too many. Pentagons cannot surround a point the way hexagons do.
On a soccer ball there are 12 pentagons and any practical number of hexagons that can make the soccer ball look spherical.
Just the one and it will be the base of the pyramid.
None normally because a pentagon is 2 dimensional 5 sided shape whereas a sphere is a 3 dimensional globular shape.
there are 12 black and 20 white pentagons. the shape is a pentagon and there are 32 shapes on a soccer ball.
As many as a person could possibly want! Square, rectangle, star, heart, circle, tree, (ananimate objects), pentagons, ocotgons, sectagons, hexagons, triangles, people, any thing you want
