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.
