Regular polygons tessellate if the interior angles can be added. What are non-regular tessellations? Non-regular tessellations are made up of polygons whose sides are not the same lengths used in a repeating pattern completely covering a plane region without gaps or overlaps.ħ Assignment Create a non-regular tessellation. A regular octagon by itself will not tessellate a plane however, combine it with a square that is turned to give the appearance of a diamond shape and the two. A tessellation is a pattern created with identical shapes which fit together with no gaps. Non-regular tessellations are made up of polygons whose sides are not the same lengths used in a repeating pattern completely covering a plane region without gaps or overlaps.Ī non-regular polygon is a polygon whose sides are different lengths.

Which of the following are non-regular polygons? yes no ? yes ? no yes ? yes yes no Non-binding elastic Non-glare glass Non-regular polygon A non-regular polygon is a polygon whose sides are different lengths.ģ ? Non-Regular Polygons yes no yes no yes yes yes no What is a non-regular polygon? What is a non-regular tessellation?Ģ Non-regular Polygons What does the prefix “non” mean? To name a tessellation, go around a vertex and write down how many sides each polygon has, in order. The polygons must line up vertex to vertex, edge to edge, leaving no gaps. Can a Heptagon tessellate Can a Heptagon Tessellate No, A regular heptagon (7 sides) has angles that measure. Presentation on theme: 'Non-Regular Tessellation'- Presentation transcript: Regular tessellations use identical regular polygons to fill the plane. Can you make a tessellation with octagons.
