Triangular tiling

In geometry, the triangular tiling or triangular tessellation is one of the three regular tilings of the Euclidean plane, and is the only such tiling where the constituent shapes are not parallelogons. Because the internal angle of the equilateral triangle is 60 degrees, six triangles at a point occupy a full 360 degrees. The triangular tiling has Schläfli symbol of {3,6}. English mathematician John Conway called it a deltille, named from the triangular shape of the Greek letter delta (Δ). The triangular tiling can also be called a kishextille by a kis operation that adds a center point and triangles to replace the faces of a hextille. It is one of three regular tilings of the plane. The other two are the square tiling and the hexagonal tiling. (Wikipedia).

Introduction to Tiling Theory

In this mini-lecture, we explore tilings found in everyday life and give the mathematical definition of a tiling. In particular, we think about: (i) traditional Islamic tilings; (ii) floor, wallpaper, pavement, and architectural tilings; (iii) the three regular tilings using either equilat

Domino tilings of squares | MegaFavNumbers

This video is part of the #MegaFavNumbers project. Domino tiling is a tessellation of the region in the Euclidean plane by dominos (2x1 rectangles). In this video we consider square tilings. Sequence, where each element is equal to the number of tilings of an NxN square, is growing reall

The theme is the tiling of flat plane by the hexagon which has the edges of 1,2,3,4,5,6 length, and that of other polygons of different edges. It is a very tough problem to make a tiling by a different edged polygon. Polygon tiling of plane often needs edges of the same lengths. It is well
