3.5 Know the characteristics of the polygons that cover the plane and make the plane coatings.
The main feature that must be a polygon to cover a plane is that the sum of its interior angles is a multiple of 360 º
Tessellations are designs geometry that can cover a plane without gaps in between, are widely used in floors and mosaics.
These designs have been used since time immemorial by peoples like the Greeks and Romans.
In recent times, Maurits Cornelis Escher (June 17, 1898 - March 27, 1972 ) was a Dutch artist, manages to make the tessellation an art, always based on basic shapes, with certain modifications.
Other examples of tessellations
tiling of Penrose , a special form of tessellation based pentagonal stars and isosceles triangles
• Make a tiling inspired some animal with cardboard , foamy or paper shell, minimum 5 figures it registers engage each other, each figure should be measured least 20 centimeters long and 15 wide. With the tiling presented a paper which will: Cover, Introduction, Outline of the figure where they can appreciate simple geometric figures that are based and the calculation of the sum of its internal angles demonstrate theoretically that can cover a plane, Conclusion and Bibliography .
