Pentagon Tilings
Math 401 Mathematics Through 3D Printing Fall 2019
Students in Math 401 have printed 13 of the 15 pentagon types that tile the plane!
These 3D printed objects are designed and printed by students in Math 401, Fall 2019, taught by Instructor Dr. Evelyn Sander with the assistance of Chloe Ham and Colin Chung.
15 classes of irregular pentagons tile the plane
The fact that there are exactly 15 distinct classes is still under peer review. These tilings represent examples of a subset of the 15 classes.
