Definition

A tessellation is a repeating pattern of geometric shapes that covers a plane without gaps or overlaps.

Description

Tessellations are fascinating geometric arrangements that play a significant role in both mathematics and art. They occur when a surface is completely covered by repeating shapes, leaving no gaps or overlaps. In geometry, tessellations demonstrate how certain shapes can fit together perfectly to create intricate patterns. The most common shapes used in tessellations are regular polygons, such as triangles, squares, and hexagons, due to their uniform angles and sides.

Geometry Concepts

Description

This image shows a tessellation pattern formed using basic shapes from pattern blocks. Pattern blocks typically include shapes such as equilateral triangles (green), squares (orange), rhombuses (blue), trapezoids (red), hexagons (yellow), and parallelograms (tan). These shapes fit together without gaps or overlaps to create a continuous pattern.

Pattern block tessellations are excellent for exploring geometric concepts such as symmetry, transformations, and spatial reasoning. They provide a hands-on way to understand how shapes can be combined to cover a plane completely.
