Tessellation - Math is Fun
9 Mar 2025 at 8:15pm
There are only 3 regular tessellations: Look at a Vertex ... A vertex is just a "corner point". What shapes meet here? and a hexagon has 6 sides. So this is called a "6.6.6" tessellation. For a regular tessellation, the pattern is identical at each vertex! A semi-regular tessellation is made of two or more regular polygons.

More formally, a tessellation or tiling is a cover of the Euclidean plane by a countable number of closed sets, called tiles, such that the tiles intersect only on their boundaries.

The topic of tessellations belongs to a field in mathematics called transformational geometry, which is a study of the ways objects can be moved while retaining the same shape and size. These movements are termed rigid motions and symmetries .
The History of Tessellations: The Mathematical Art of Repeating Patterns

From patterned wallpaper to decorative mosaics, tessellations can be found all around us. The mathematical art of creating repeating patterns dates back to 4000 BCE when the Sumerians used clay tiles to decorate their homes and temples.

There are three different types of tessellations: regular, semi-regular, and irregular tessellations. Let?s explore each of them. Regular Tessellations. Regular tessellations are patterns made of regular polygons?shapes with sides of equal length and angles of equal size?that fit together perfectly without any gaps or overlaps.

Tessellations -- gapless mosaics of defined shapes -- belong to a breed of ratios, constants and patterns that recur throughout architecture, reveal themselves under microscopes and radiate from every honeycomb and sunflower.

While these concepts lead to many themes, tessellations of the plane appear particularly often in Escher's work. A tessellation (or tiling) of the plane is a construction that fills a flat surface completely with geometric shapes, usually called tiles.

Tessellation refers to covering a given surface with a pattern of flat shapes (either repeating or non-repeating) in such a way that no shape overlaps another, and there?s no gap between any two shapes.

There are only three tessellations that are composed entirely of regular, congruent polygons. Each polygon is a non-overlapping equilateral triangle. Each polygon is a non-overlapping square. Each polygon is a non-overlapping regular hexagon.
