What else can I help you with?
Which regular polygons will fit together to tile a flat surface?
Triangles, squares and hexagons. That is if they all have to be the same. If you use different regular polygons, you can tile a flat surface with triangles and 12-sides or with squares and 8-sides for example.
What regular polygons can not be use to tile a floor by itself?
Bone
Can copies of a polygon be used to tile a surface?
Yes, copies of a polygon can be used to tile a surface, provided the polygon is a suitable shape. Regular polygons, like squares and equilateral triangles, can easily tile a plane without gaps or overlaps. However, some irregular polygons can also tile surfaces, depending on their angles and side lengths. The key requirement for a polygon to tile a surface is that it can cover the area without leaving any spaces between the tiles.
Can a regular tessellation use four different regular polygons to cover a surface?
No. Four regular polygons cannot be combined for this purpose.
Is it possible to tile a floor with copies of a regular polygon?
Yes, but only with some polygons.
What regular polygons can not tile a surface?
Regular polygons with 5, 7 or more sides.
Which regular polygons will fit together to tile a flat surface?
Triangles, squares and hexagons. That is if they all have to be the same. If you use different regular polygons, you can tile a flat surface with triangles and 12-sides or with squares and 8-sides for example.

What are all the regular polygons that tile?
The only ones are equilateral triangles, squares and regular hexagons.
Can a regular tessellation use four different regular polygons to cover a surface?
No. Four regular polygons cannot be combined for this purpose.
Is it possible to tile a floor with copies of a regular polygon?
Yes, but only with some polygons.
Will a regular polygon tile?
There are only three regular polygons which with tile. These a re a triangle, quadrilateral (square) and hexagon.This is because if there are n tiles meeting at a point, then the sum of the angles around that point must be 360 degrees - otherwise the polygons will overlap. The only regular polygons with interior angles that are factors of 360 are the ones mentioned above.
A regular tessellation is a tessellation which uses regular polygons to cover a surface completely?
one
Can a octagon tile a flat surface alone?
A regular octagon cannot tile a flat surface, it needs squares as fillers. An irregular octagon can tile a flat surface alone.
What of the following combinations will tile a flat surface?
To determine which combinations will tile a flat surface, you need to check if the shapes can cover the area without gaps or overlaps. Regular polygons like squares, equilateral triangles, and hexagons can tile a flat surface effectively. Some irregular shapes can also tile, but their specific arrangements must be analyzed. Generally, the key is that the interior angles of the shapes must add up to 360 degrees around a point where they meet.
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 you tile a surface with a regular hexagon?
Yes you can. Envision a beehive - it is made of regular hexagons.
