Symmetry & Transformations

Tessellation Builder

Snap regular shapes together edge-to-edge. Discover which shapes tessellate and which leave gaps.

Why this tool helps: Students cannot predict which shapes will tile the plane. The angle-sum display at vertices reveals the 360-degree rule.

Year levels: Year 4, Year 5, Year 6, Year 7 Curriculum: Australian Curriculum aligned
