No, a triangle will not tessellate by itself. In order for a shape to tessellate, it must be able to fit together with copies of itself without any gaps or overlaps. Triangles have angles that add up to 180 degrees, which does not allow them to fit together seamlessly to create a tessellation. Shapes like squares, hexagons, and equilateral triangles can tessellate because their angles allow them to fit together perfectly.
