How do you identify a tessellation?
Shapes when tessellated fit neatly together with no overlaps or gaps
Can a circle be tessellated?
Nope... there will always be spaces around the circles - even when they're touching.
Explain why a regular nonagon does not tessellate?
because there are to many sides * * * * * Each interior angle of a regular nonagon is 140 degrees. At any point in the tessellated plane, a whole number of shapes must come together and the sum of their interior angles must be 360 degrees. 140 does not go into 360 and so a regular nonagon cannot tessellate.
What are 4D shapes?
4D shapes are shapes in four dimensional space. Since we live in 3D space it is very difficult for most people to visualise 4D shapes.
What are three-dimensional shapes?
Three dimensional shapes are shapes with height, width, and depth. In contrast, two dimensional shapes only have height and width, or length and width.
What two shapes can not be tessellated?
star and circle
How do you identify a tessellation?

What means tessellated?
It means shapes that have been joined together with no gaps or overlaps
Can a regular decagon be tessellated?
no it can not i have research it thoroughly i could not find any pictures of a regular decagon tessellated. i did but they all had different shapes so the answer is no it is not logically possible
A section of tessellated plane is shown which type of symmetry does the tessellated plane have?
a
Is a square a polygon that tesselates?
A square is one of the simplest shapes that can be tessellated. Tessellation is the means of using a repeated shape to build a larger shape with no gaps or overlaps.
What does it mean when a figure tessellated?
A chessboard is tessellated, so I assume it is a figure that is checkered.
Can a pentagon be tessellated?
No
What regular polygons can be tessellated?
In a normal plane, only regular polygons with interior angles that are a factor of 360o can be tessellated. This means only three shapes: the regular (equilateral) triangle, the regular quadrilateral (square) and the regular hexagon. If the line were considered a regular polygon (with only two sides) then it would also be included in this list.
Can a regular pentagon be tessellated?
No.
Can a triangle be tessellated?
Yes
Can triangles be tessellated?
