Triangular Tiling

In geometry, the triangular tiling is one of the three regular tilings of the Euclidean plane. Because the internal angle of the equilateral triangle is 60 degrees, six triangles at a point occupy a full 360 degrees. The triangular tiling has Schläfli symbol of {3,6}.

Conway calls it a deltille, named from the triangular shape of the Greek letter delta (Δ). The triangular tiling is roughly the kishextile.

It is one of three regular tilings of the plane. The other two are the square tiling and the hexagonal tiling.
