Final Answer:
Yes, it is possible to tessellate all the given shapes except the circle and the shape in the bottom-left (a rectangle with two opposite corners cut off). The rest—regular hexagon, cross, parallelogram, regular pentagon, arrow-like shape, regular octagon, and the double-arrow shape—can tessellate. However, note: a regular pentagon
cannot tessellate the plane by itself (only irregular pentagons can, in specific cases), so the correct answer is: only the shapes that *can* tessellate are: hexagon, cross, parallelogram, arrow-like, octagon, double-arrow. Circle and regular pentagon and the cut-corner rectangle cannot.
But since the question asks “Is it possible to tessellate the following shapes? Write yes or no.” — and expects one answer per shape — the intended expected answers (based on standard elementary curriculum) are:
1. Hexagon → Yes
2. Cross → Yes
3. Parallelogram → Yes
4. Circle → No
5. Arrow (T-shaped or chevron) → Yes
6. Regular pentagon → No
7. Cut-corner rectangle → No
8. Octagon → No (regular octagon alone cannot tessellate; needs squares to fill gaps)
9. Double-arrow → Yes
Wait — this is ambiguous without seeing exact shapes clearly.
