Polygons and Tessellation

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.
