I think it has something to do with their angles all adding up to 360 degrees! If you take the internal angle measure of a hexagon (150 I think) and add it up to the 90 degrees in a square and the 60 degrees in an equilateral triangle, you get 360! so it all works out. But squares and hexagons can only tessellate with equilateral triangles so bear that in mind. I think it has something to do with their angles all adding up to 360 degrees!

Shapes with no right angles?
Most shapes have no right angles. Circle, pentagon, hexagon etc. Ones that do include the square and some triangles.
What shape has 6 edges?
The shape with six edges is a called a hexagon. Examples of a hexagon would be a stop sign on the road.
Why do only the triangle hexagon and square tile?
It's not because of a natural law or something; it's inherent in the structure of space, and the shapes of triangles, hexagons, and squares. Your question is like asking, "why does 2 + 2 = 4?" There's not a reason, they just do because that's how things are.Also, they aren't the only shapes that tile, just the only regular polygons that tile.>>M.T.
3 sided shape?
3 sided shapes are triangles
