For regular polygons, the interior angle must be a factor of 360 degrees.
Irregular triangles and quadrilaterals (whose angle sums are factors of 360 degrees) will tessellate. For other polygons, I am not aware of any simple rule.

Which regular shape will not tessellate?
transversal
How 3D shape tessellate?
Some 3D shapes will tessellate as for example a brick wall
Will a kite shape a tessellate?
Yes because all 4 sided quadrilaterals will tessellate
Can a pizza slice shape tessellate?
Usually not. A part of a circular shape will not.
How can you determine if a geometric shape can tessellate?
Any shape tesselates any of its covering spaces.
What shape can't you tessellate?
A regular pentagon will not tessellate.
Can heptagon shape tessellate?
No.
Will the shape of a light bulb tessellate?
No
Which regular shape will not tessellate?
transversal
Can a T-shape tessellate?
Yes
How 3D shape tessellate?
Some 3D shapes will tessellate as for example a brick wall
Will a kite shape a tessellate?
Yes because all 4 sided quadrilaterals will tessellate
Does pentagon shape tessellate?
Yes it does tesselate.
Can a pizza slice shape tessellate?
Usually not. A part of a circular shape will not.
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.
How can you tell if a regular shape will tessellate?
It will tessellate if its vertices divide into 360 degrees evenly. The only regular polygons that will tessellate are an equilateral triangle, a square and a regular hexagon. There are other, non-regular, polygons that will tessellate.
How can you determine if a geometric shape can tessellate?
Any shape tesselates any of its covering spaces.
