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 first flag to the second. This is equivalent to the tiling being an edge-to-edge tiling by congruent regular polygons. There must be six equilateral triangles, four squares or three regular hexagons at a vertex, yielding the three regular tessellations. Vertex-transitivity means that for every pair of vertices there is a symmetry operation mapping the first vertex to the second. If the requirement of flag-transitivity is relaxed to one of vertex-transitivity, while the condition that the tiling is edge-to-edge is kept, there are eight additional tilings possible, known as "Archimedean", "uniform" or "semiregular" tilings. Note that there are two mirror image
