A regular tessellation is a tessellation composed entirely of congruent polygons - meaning that ALL shapes in the tessellation are the same. Only 3 regular tessellations exist: equilateral triangles, regular hexagons, and squares.
A tessellation is any pattern of shapes which can be repeated infinitely throughout a plane without leaving any "spaces" between the connected patterns and also without any of the shapes overlapping each other.

What is the difference between a semi regular and a regular tessellation?
A regular tessellation is based on only one regular polygonal shape. A semi-regular tessellation is based on two or more regular polygons.
What is the difference between a regular tessellation and a semi regular one?
A regular tessellation uses only one regular polygon. A semi-regular tessellation is based on two or more regular polygons.
What is the difference in a regular and semi-regular tessellation?
A regular tessellation is based on multiple copies of the same regular polygon. A semi-regular tessellation uses copies of two (or more) regular polygons. In the latter case, at each vertex the various polygons are arrayed in the same order (or its mirror image).
A tessellation that uses more than one kind of regular polygon is called an?
A tessellation that uses more than one kind of regular polygon is called a semi-regular tessellation.
What is a tessellation formed by only one type of regular polygon?
It is a regular tessellation.
