Worksheet for identifying tessellations with four tile patterns and instructions to determine if they are tessellations.

A worksheet titled "Practice 1 - Identifying Tessellations" with four tile patterns labeled (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv), each showing different geometric shapes arranged in repeating patterns. The task is to determine if each pattern is a tessellation and to write "Yes" or "No" in the blanks provided, along with the color shape used. Below the patterns, there is a section for giving reasons for the answers.

▼

1. (i) Yes, it is a tessellation. The shape used is a hexagon, and the pattern repeats without gaps or overlaps.

2. (ii) Yes, it is a tessellation. The shape used is a rhombus, and the pattern repeats without gaps or overlaps.

3. (iii) Yes, it is a tessellation. The shape used is a regular hexagon, and the pattern repeats without gaps or overlaps.

4. (iv) Yes, it is a tessellation. The shape used is a rectangle, and the pattern repeats without gaps or overlaps.

Reasons: All four patterns are tessellations because they cover the plane completely with no gaps or overlaps, and each pattern uses a single shape (or set of shapes) that repeats in a regular manner. The shapes used are regular polygons or quadrilaterals that can tile the plane by themselves.
