Semi-regular Tessellations Regular tessellations use identical regular polygons to fill the plane. The vertices of each polygon must coincide with the vertices of other polygons. You can produce exactly three regular tessellations: Can you convince yourself that there are no more? Semi-regular tessellations (or Archimedean tessellations) have two properties:They are formed by two or more types of regular polygon, each with the same side lengthEach vertex has the same pattern of polygons around it. Here are two examples: In the first, triangle, triangle, triangle, square, square {3, 3, 3, 4, 4} meet at each point. Can you find all the semi-regular tessellations? Can you show that you have found them all? To help you when you are working away from the computer, click below for multiple copies of the different polygons.
