Can one Regular Dodecagon (150°) and two Equilateral Triangles (60° + 60°) meet at a vertex to tile?
Options
A. No, dodecagons do not exist.
B. Yes, because 270 is a nice number.
C. No, because 150° + 60° + 60° = 270° ≠ 360°.
D. Yes, it completes a circle.
Explanation
150° + 60° + 60° = 270°, which leaves a 90° gap (needs a square, forming a 3.12.12 or 4.6.12 semi-regular vertex).
