Can Regular Octagons form a monohedral tiling (tiling by themselves)?

Type: MCQ • Marks: 1

A. Yes, octagons cover everything.

B. No, because octagons have curved sides.

C. No, because 360° is not divisible by 135° (2 × 135° = 270°, 3 × 135° = 405°).

D. Yes, because 135 is a multiple of 5.

Explanation

Two octagons leave a gap of 360° - 270° = 90° (which can be filled by a square in a semi-regular tiling).
