What shape do you need to put with octagons to form a tiling pattern?
Assuming regular octagons, squares.
Do irregular octagons have lines of symmetry?
They may have no lines of symmetry or they may have some - it all depends upon the shape of the irregular octagon. Only regular octagons have 8 lines of symmetry.
Is regular polygons also similar?
-- All regular (equilateral) triangles are similar. -- All squares are similar. -- All pentagons are similar. -- All hexagons are similar. . . . etc. Any regular polygon is similar to all other regular polygons with the same number of sides.
Do octagons tessellate?
No it does not tessellate you have to pentagons in order for it to tessellate. * * * * * It is not at all clear what "have to pentagons" has to do with this. No polygon with 7 or more sides will tessellate. Octagons will tessellate if mixed with squares but that is not "proper" tessellation since it involved more than one shape.
How many sides does eight octagons have?
There are 64 sides in eight octagons.
Are two regular octagons always sometimes or never similar?
Two regular octagons are always similar because they have equal angles and all sides are congruent. This means that they have the same shape, just different sizes.
Is a octagon regular shape?
There are regular octagons, and irregular octagons.
What is a shape that can be a 8 sided polygon?
All eight sided polygons are known as "octagons". Octagons that have all side lengths the same are known as "regular octagons".
Do octagons have all equal sides?
regular ones do but not irregular
Do all octogons have the same number of lines of symmetry?
All regular octagons have the same number of lines of symmetry, but octagons with unequal sides would have fewer lines of symmetry.
What shape do you need to put with octagons to form a tiling pattern?
Assuming regular octagons, squares.
Are any of a octagons sides equal in length?
They can be. A regular octagon has all sides of equal length.
If the similarity ratio of two similar octagons is 3 to 5 what is the ratio of the areas of the octagons?
9:25
Do irregular octagons have lines of symmetry?
They may have no lines of symmetry or they may have some - it all depends upon the shape of the irregular octagon. Only regular octagons have 8 lines of symmetry.
Can a semi-regular tessellation be made from octagons and rhombi?
Strictly speaking, no, because a semi-regular tessellation must be based on regular polygons and rhombi are not regular polygons. However, octagons and rhombi can be used to make a non-regular tessellation.
Do octagons have only obtuse angles?
No, not if it is a randomly-drawn 8-vertex shape. Octagons only have all- obtuse angles if it is a regular octagon, like the shape of a stop sign.
The addition of what shape will allow regular octagons to tessellate?
Squares.
