Affine-regular polygon properties of regular polygons are invariant under affine transformations, and affine-regular polygons share the same properties. For instance, an affine-regular quadrilateral can be equidissected into formula_1 equal-area triangles if and only if formula_1 is even, by affine invariance of equidissection and Monsky's theorem on equidissections of squares. More generally an formula_3-gon with formula_4 may be equidissected into formula_1 equal-area triangles if and only if formula_1 is a multiple of formula_3. Affine-regular polygon In geometry, an affine-regular polygon or affinely regular polygon is a polygon that is related to a regular polygon by an affine transformation. Affine transformations include translations, uniform
Euclidean tilings by convex regular polygons vertex and one has an odd number of sides, the other two polygons must be the same. If they are not, they would have to alternate around the first polygon, which is impossible if its number of sides is odd. By that restriction these six cannot appear in any tiling of regular polygons: These four can be used in "k"-uniform tiling: Some of the "k"-uniform tilings can be derived by symmetrically dissecting the tiling polygons with interior edges, for example: Some k-uniform tilings can be derived by dissecting regular polygons with new vertices along the original edges, for example: There
