Tessellations!!!!! A tessellation is a way to tile a floor (that goes on forever) with shapes so that there is no overlapping and no gaps.

A tessellation (or tiling) is a special type of pattern that consists of geometric figures that fit without gaps or overlaps to cover the plane.

What is a tesselation? It is a design consisting of the same interlocking pattern repeated over and over

M. C. Escher Born in Holland Studied architecture Famous artist Mathematical ties Used symmetry and tesselations

This is a sample of a tesselation using a geometric shape.

Regular Tesselation Rules: Must be a regular polygon Polygons cannot overlap or connect Each vertex must be the same Angles that form vertices must equal 360º

Is this a regular tesselation?

Why or why not?

Semi-regular Tesselations Rule: Must use two or more different regular polygons
