A polygon can form a regular tessellation only if the sum of its interior angles is a divisor of 360 degrees. Therefore, the number of sides a polygon can have to form a regular tessellation are the factors of 360 degrees.
The factors of 360 are:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, 30, 36, 40, 45, 60, 72, 90, 120, 180, and 360.
So, the number of sides a polygon can have to form a regular tessellation are any of the above numbers.
which of the following is the number of sides a polygon can have to form a regular tessellations
