A tessellation is when a shape is repeated over and over creating an image without any spacing.... like triangles put together next to one another in an endless plane.
The tessellation is a repeating pattern of figures that covers a plane without any gaps or overlaps.
Honeycomb is a tessellation of hexagonal cells. You can see tessellation on some pavements.

sometimes they are tessellation
tessellation
Polygons will tessellate if when joined together there is no gaps or overlaps
Tessellation is a pattern of shapes without gaps or overlapping shapes. Examples would be floor tiles, bricks, ceiling tiles etc.

Triangles, Hexagons and Squares. I am not a math professor or a college student, but I'm pretty sure that there are some more irregular shapes out there that will form a tessellation.
A tessellation occurs and relates to math with shapes that recur. Tessellations are shapes that are repeated continuously and cover a certain part of a plane.
Examine at some of the Symmetry artwork of MC Escher. He inspired Sir Roger Penrose, a mathematician whose work will shed some light on the mathematical uses of tessellation.
Yes it is a tessellation.
Non-visible tessellation or non-existent tessellation, perhaps.
How to Make a Tessellation?
A regular tessellation or semi-regular tessellation or none.
