Look at the polygon below.

Part 1. On your own paper, create a tessellation using this polygon. Your tessellation should include a point where 4 such polygons meet. You will NOT turn this part in to your instructor.
Part 2. Which transformations did you use? Explain why it is possible to tessellate this figure.
