Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angle measure of a regular polygon is calculated with 180*(n-2)/n, where n represents the number of sides.
A regular octagon has 10 sides so it interior angle = 180*(10-2)/10
= 144
A tessellation is a tile pattern with the same polygon repeating. The polygon's interior angles must combine to form 360 degree. A regular octagon has interior angle of 144 degree which does not add to 360 degree. So a regular octagon cannot be used as the only shape in a regular tessellation.
The answer is 144°, no.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
oct means 10
(n-2)/n * 180
= (10-2)/10 * 180
= 144°
144 + 144 = 288 < 360
144 + 144 + 144 = 432 > 360
so a regular octagon can NOT be used as the only shape in a regular tessellation.
