In the Euclidean plane, only three types of regular polygons can tessellate: equilateral triangles, squares, and regular hexagons. This is because their interior angles can perfectly add up to 360 degrees at each vertex. Other regular polygons, such as pentagons or octagons, do not meet this criterion and thus cannot tessellate the plane.
What else can I help you with?
What regular polygons can tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
Triangle, square and hexagon
Which regular polygons can tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
Equilateral triangle, square and regular hexagon.
Which polygons will tile the plane?
If it's interior angle is a factor of 360 then it will tessellate such as a square, a regular hexagon and an equilateral triangle.
Can heptagon tessellate?
No. Equilateral heptagons (7 sided figures) do not tessellate the plane. Not if no other polygons are allowed. But if you allow a (non-equilateral) pentagon then you might be able to tessellate the plane!
Which three regular polygons can tessellate in a plane?
The three regular polygons that can tessellate in a plane are equilateral triangles, squares, and regular hexagons. These shapes can fill a space without any gaps or overlaps because their interior angles are divisors of 360 degrees. Equilateral triangles have angles of 60 degrees, squares have angles of 90 degrees, and regular hexagons have angles of 120 degrees, all of which allow for complete tiling of the plane.
What does semi regular tessellation have?
It has two regular polygons which can be used together to tessellate a plane.
What regular polygons can tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
Triangle, square and hexagon
Which regular polygons can tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
Equilateral triangle, square and regular hexagon.
How many regular polygons does it take to tessellate a graph plane?
The answer depends on the size of the plane and of each polygon.
Which ragular polygons can tessellate a plane with no overlaps or gaps?
Equilateral triangle, square and regular hexagon.
Which polygon will not tessellate a plane?
Most regular polygons will not - by themselves. In fact, of the regular polygons, only a triangle, square and hexagon will. No other regular polygon will create a regular tessellation.

What types of figures tessellations the plane?
All sorts of figures. The only regular polygons that can tessellate by themselves are triangles, squares and hexagons. Irregular polygons such as rectangles, rhombuses, parallelograms and trapeziums will as well. Regular octagons combined with squares will. Other regular polygons can be combined with appropriate star-shapes to tesselate. There are also Penrose tilings which, although they cover the plane, are non-periodic in the sense that the pattern does not repeat itself if you move along. Finally there are many irregular shapes that will tessellate.
Can a regular octagon tessellate the plane by itself?
No
If a tessellation is regular how many sides can the reselling regular polygon have check all that apply?
A regular tessellation can only be formed by regular polygons with 3, 4, or 6 sides. These polygons are the equilateral triangle, square, and regular hexagon. Other polygons, such as pentagons or heptagons, cannot tessellate the plane without leaving gaps or overlaps. Thus, the applicable options for regular polygons in a regular tessellation are 3, 4, and 6 sides.
