What kinds of regular polygons can be used for regular tessellations?
3-sided4-sided6-sided3 sided, 4 sided, and 6 sided or in other words, triangles, squares, and hexagons.
What is a non regular tessellation?
Non-regular tessellations is a tessellation in which there is no restriction on the order of the polygons around vertices. There is an infinite number of such tessellations. These are tessellations with nonregular simple convex or concave polygons. All triangles and quadrilaterals will tessellate. Some pentagons and hexagons will.
How are tessellations related to math?
Its trigonometry. Tessellations are shapes.
What is the square tessellation?
There isn't just one square tessellation .... there can be many. You will have to look up some or make your own. But squares CAN be used in tessellations, if that is your question.

Tessellations
How many types of tessellations are?
Tessellations of regular polygons can occur only when the external angle of a polygon is equal to a factor of 360. As such, the only tessellations of regular polygons can occur when the internal angles of a polygon are equal to a factor of 360. As such, the only regular polygons which tessellate are triangles, squares, and hexagons.
How many different types of semiregular tessellations are there?
There are eight different types of semiregular tessellations. Also called Archimedean tessellations, they occur when two or more convex regular polygons form tessellations of the plane in a way each polygon vertex is surrounded by the same polygons and in the same order.
What is the difference between regular and irregular tessellations?
It means with irregular polygons
Which set of polygons will create a tessellation?
All sorts of polygons can create tessellations. See attached link for some examples: http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tessellation
Why do tessellations have to be used with only polygons?
All shapes have to be polygons, because there is no shape that has 1 or 2 sides. A tessellation has to be a shape, so that it can be repeated. Its not going to be much of a tessellation if its a line.. lol.. that isn't a tessellation
Can only regular polygons with an odd number of sides can make a regular tessellation?
No. Squares and regular hexagons, both with an even number of sides, can make regular tessellations.
Can only regular polygons with an odd number of sides make a regular tessellation?
No. Squares and regular hexagons, both with an even number of sides, can make regular tessellations.
What are the different forms of tessellations?
All tessellations, involve inlaying, its the materials used and the designs applied that make the difference.

Tessellations that use more than one type of regular polygon are called regular tessellations.?
Actually, tessellations that use more than one type of regular polygon are called semi-regular or Archimedean tessellations, not regular tessellations. Regular tessellations consist of only one type of regular polygon repeating in a pattern. Examples of regular tessellations include those formed by equilateral triangles, squares, or hexagons. Semi-regular tessellations combine two or more different types of regular polygons while still covering a plane without gaps or overlaps.
Where can you find tessellations?
Tessellations can be found in art, architecture, nature, and mathematics. You can see tessellations in tiles, quilts, pavement designs, honeycomb patterns, and even in the arrangement of fish scales. Mathematically, regular polygons like squares, triangles, and hexagons can tessellate a plane.
