Figure 1. New equiangular pentagons from old. An interesting investigation of equiangular polygons with integer sides is provided in [1], where the author considers the problem of tiling these polygons with either regular polygons or other pattern blocks of integer sides. In particular, he points out that every equiangular hexagon with integer sides can be tiled by a set of congruent equilateral triangles, also of integer sides, and also proposes a general tiling conjecture with an extended tiling set.
On the other hand, if one no longer requires integer edges but asks that the vertices be integer lattice points, the only equiangular polygons that will do are squares and octagons see [2,3]. Further restricting the class of equiangular polygons with integer sides, in [4], R.
Dawson considers the class of arithmetic polygons, i. In this note, we address the more general problem of determining all equiangular polygons with rational edges and, as a special case, we settle the classification problem above. First, we derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of closed polygonal paths in terms of edge lengths and angle measures.
Proof Assuming that such a polygon exists, let be the complex number associated to. As the vector is the multiple of the rotation of in through see Figure 2 , we have. Based on the same type of argument, regardless of the orientation of triangles we have. Figure 2. The polygon. Relation 1. Conversely, to prove the existence of a closed polygonal path with given satisfying 1.
We will prove that the closed polygonal path satisfies the requirements. To do so, if we let and denote the measure of the angle formed by with by and with by then, we need to show that and By applying the direct implication to our polygonal path with edge lengths and angle measures , we have. By factoring out and applying the modulus on both sides of the equality above, we have. However, the same type of operations can also be applied to the relation in our hypothesis involving to obtain.
But then based on the two formulas above. Related documents. Geometry Chapter 7 Similarity Notes. Download advertisement. Add this document to collection s. You can add this document to your study collection s Sign in Available only to authorized users.

Three pentagons at a vertex gives us degrees, which leaves a gap of 36 degrees that is too small to fill with another pentagon.
And four pentagons at a point produces unwanted overlap. This means the regular pentagon admits no monohedral, edge-to-edge tiling of the plane. And with that, the regular, monohedral, edge-to-edge tilings of the plane are completely understood. Once a specific problem is solved, we start to relax the conditions.
Under what circumstances could such polygons tile the plane? For triangles and quadrilaterals, the answer is, remarkably, always! We can rotate any triangle degrees about the midpoint of one of its sides to make a parallelogram, which tiles easily. A similar strategy works for any quadrilateral: Simply rotate the quadrilateral degrees around the midpoint of each of its four sides. Repeating this process builds a legitimate tiling of the plane. Thus, all triangles and quadrilaterals — even irregular ones — admit an edge-to-edge monohedral tiling of the plane.
For example, consider the pentagon below, whose interior angles measure , , , and degrees. The pentagon above admits no monohedral, edge-to-edge tiling of the plane. To prove this, we need only consider how multiple copies of this pentagon could possibly be arranged at a vertex. We know that at each vertex in our tiling the measures of the angles must sum to degrees. Constructing an irregular pentagon in this way shows us why not all irregular pentagons can tile the plane: There are certain restrictions on the angles that not all pentagons satisfy.
But even having a set of five angles that can form combinations that add up to degrees is not enough to guarantee that a given pentagon can tile the plane. Consider the pentagon below.
