Move the slider and observe what happens.
1.) Which of the regular polygons tessellate? Can you explain why they do?
2.) As n increases can we can find a regular polygons that tessellate?
a. If yes, how many of them can be found? Are they finite?
b. If no, what is the maximum number of side of a polygon that can tessellate? Why?
3.) Make a conjecture about your observations above.
