Transcript
Tiling the Entire Plane (Tessellation)Imagine you have an infinitely large floor (a "plane") and a bag full of identical tiles. "Tiling the plane" means covering that entire floor with those tiles so that there are no gaps and no overlaps. In mathematics, this is called a Tessellation. We can cover the shapes by regular polygons like Squares Equilateral Triangles Regular Hexagons
