Answer 3

Can you use that shape as tiles for ur floor, and cover the entire floor ?

Answer 4

Clearly its a very bad shape for tiling ur floor.. you will be left with uncovered areas no matter what transformations(isometric) u do to the given shape - So the given shape wont tessellate

Answer 11

I'm gonna leave this question and go to my open one. I believe ganeshie8 was right. But who knows.

Answer 12

@I_love_my_nieces the figure you have mentioned is dome.... and also the tessellated figure are:
an equilateral triangle
a parallelogram
a right triangle
an obtuse triangle
an acute triangle that is neither equilateral nor a right triangle
a trapezoid (a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides)
a quadrilateral that is neither a rectangle nor a trapezoid
a regular pentagon
a regular hexagon
a regular octagon...

so this figure can not be called as tessellated...

and @ganeshie8 is rite...

and @ganeshie8 your drawn shape is rite too... this type of tile is just used for decoration purpose.... and the remaining area is to be covered by other shape of tiles....
