Which regular polygon will not tessellate by itself?
A regular pentagon
It's possible to tessellate a plane with?
It is possible to tessellate a plane with squares, triangles, and hexagons. To tessellate something means to cover it with repeated use of a single shape, without gaps or overlapping.
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.
Which regular polygon will tessellate alone?
An equilateral triangle, a square and a hexagon.
Will every quadrilateral will tessellate the plane?
no * * * * * Actually, the answer is YES.
Is it true you can not tessellate six sides polygon by itself?
No, it is not true that you cannot tessellate a six-sided polygon by itself. Hexagons are a type of polygon that can tessellate, which means they can be arranged in a repeating pattern to completely cover a plane without any gaps or overlaps.
Does every equilateral tessellates a plane?
No. An equilateral polygon with 5 or with 7 or more sides will not tessellate a plane.
How many regular polygons does it take to tessellate a graph plane?
The answer depends on the size of the plane and of each polygon.
Can a dodecagon tessellate?
No, there is no polygon with 7 or more sides can tessellate.
Is it possible to tessellate a plane by using any single type of regular polygon?
No because a regular polygon will only tessellate if its interior angle is a factor of 360 degrees. For example an equilateral triangle will tessellate because its interior angle is 60 degrees which is a factor of 360 degrees.
Which other regular polygon will a regular heptagon tessellate with?
There is no such polygon.
Will a 10 sided polygon tessellate?
no no
Can you tessellate a eight sided polygon?
No
Every quadrilateral will tessellate the plane?
every quadrilateral will tessellate the plane? true or false
Do nonagons tessellate?
yes * * * * * Wrong! A nonagon, regular or not, will not tessellate. In fact, no polygon with 7 or more sides will tessellate.
Does a dodecagon tessellate?
Yes it does tessellate. * * * * * That is simply not true. No polygon with 7 or more sides will tessellate with identical shapes.
Will a regular 16-gon tessellate a plane?
A regular 16-gon, also known as a hexadecagon, will not tessellate a plane. In order for a polygon to tessellate a plane, the interior angles of the polygon must divide evenly into 360 degrees. The interior angle of a regular hexadecagon is 157.5 degrees, which does not evenly divide into 360 degrees. Therefore, a regular 16-gon will not tessellate a plane.
