For a shape to tile a plane, it must be capable of sharing a border with a copy of itself. Circles cannot do this; two circles which do not overlap touch in at most one point.

No circles can't tessellate because tessellate means fits together without any gaps and overlaping. I hope this helps =]
yes... this figure does 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.
A regular pentagon will not tessellate.
A regular hexagon will tessellate.
