What figure cannot be used to tessellate three-dimensional space?
A sphere.A sphere.A sphere.A sphere.
Does an equilateral trianlge and an octagon tessellate?
No, they cannot.
Why will a hexagon tessellate?
yes there are several ways to tesselate this figure.
Can a square and a pentagon tessellate?
No, a square and a pentagon cannot tessellate together. In order for two shapes to tessellate, their angles must add up to a multiple of 360 degrees. A square has angles of 90 degrees, while a regular pentagon has angles of 108 degrees. Since 90 and 108 do not add up to a multiple of 360, these shapes cannot tessellate together.
You cannot tessellate five-sided regular polygons by themselves?
Mostly true - you cannot tessellate only regular pentagons in two dimensions, since you cannot sum up the intersection of the angles to 360 degrees. If you tessellate a regular pentagon in three dimensions, you end up with a dodecahedron.
Does a diamond tessellate?
yes... this figure does tessellate

Is there such thing as a 3D hexagon?
Yes!!!! It's names a 'HEXAHEDRON'. A CUBE is one such object. NB In the nomenclature (naming system). 'Hexa' is '6' from Latin. '--gon' is a 2 dimensional figure. (As IN POLYGON ; many sides). '--hedron- is a 3 dimensional solid. (As in POLYHEDRON ; many faces).
Is it true that you cannot tessellate seven sided polygons by themselves?
You cannot tessellate convex polygons with 7 or more sides.
Can an octagon tessellate?
An octagon can be used to create a tessellation, but an octagon cannot tessellate on its own.
Can you tessellate five sided regular polygons by themselves?
five-sided polygons cannot tessellate

What numbers tesselate?

Why will a hexagon tessellate?
yes there are several ways to tesselate this figure.
CAn You cannot tessellate eight sided regular polygons?
A regular octagon will not tessellate - the 'spaces' left over are squares.
What figure you do not use to form a tessellation?
All triangles will tessellate. All quadrilaterals will tessellate There are 15 classes of 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.
