Tessellations ?repeating geometric patterns made up of shapes like hexagons, octagons, and more?can be found all around us, from patterned wallpaper to decorative mosaics. This mathematical art form dates back to 4000 BCE when the Sumerians used clay tiles to decorate their homes and temples.

There are countless designs that may be classified as regular tessellations, and they all have one thing in common?their patterns repeat and cover the plane. We will explore how tessellations are created and experiment with making some of our own as well.

Tessellations can be specified using a Schläfli symbol. The breaking up of self-intersecting polygons into simple polygons is also called tessellation (Woo et al. 1999), or more properly, polygon tessellation.

Tessellations can be formed from ordinary and abnormal polygons, making the patterns they produce yet more interesting. Tessellations of squares, triangles and hexagons are the simplest and are frequently visible in normal existence, as an instance in chess boards and beehives.

A tessellation is a tiling over a plane with one or more figures such that the figures fill the plane with no overlaps and no gaps. You have probably seen tessellations before. Examples of a tessellation are: a tile floor, a brick or block wall, a checker or chess board, and a fabric pattern.
