What figure cannot be used to tessellate three-dimensional space?
A sphere.A sphere.A sphere.A sphere.
Why is a sphere rarely used for packaging?
A sphere cannot be stacked tightly together. (It can't tessellate) A cube for example can and therefore maximizes storage space.
Is it possible to create a tessellation from pentagons?
Regular pentagons will not tessellate but there are 15 classes of convex pentagons – the latest discovered in 2015 – which will tessellate.
Can you tessellate 6 sided regular polygons by them self?
Yes, you can.
How many cuts in half is possible to make in a sphere?
None. It is not possible to make a sphere in that fashion.

It's possible to tessellate a plane with?
It is possible to tessellate a plane with squares, triangles, and hexagons. To tessellate something means to cover it with repeated use of a single shape, without gaps or overlapping.

Is it possible to tessellate a hexagon and diamonds?
Yes
How many 100 mile diameter spheres would it take to blanket a 9000 mile diameter sphere with each sphere touching the 6 nearest spheres?
You cannot blanket a large sphere wit smaller spheres because spheres cannot tessellate. There are always gaps between adjacent spheres and so no blanketing is possible.
Can a regular octagon be tessellated?
no it cant be unless you use pentagons and octagons like on a soccer ball * * * * * That is an unbelievably rubbish answer! Tessellation - unless otherwise specified - refers to covering a 2-d surface, not the surface of a sphere. Normal soccer balls do not have pentagons and octagons but pentagons and hexagons.
If you were to cut a corner of a shape will it still tessellate?
It is possible, but not always true.
