Pentagons do not tessellate in the same way that triangles and squares do because their interior angles do not allow them to fit together perfectly without gaps or overlaps. The sum of the interior angles of a pentagon is 540 degrees, and this does not divide evenly into 360 degrees, which is necessary for a shape to tessellate. While some specific types of irregular pentagons can tessellate, regular pentagons cannot.
