BP152 No axis of symmetry vs. vertical axis of symmetry.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
CROSSREFS

BP50 is the same solution (with the sides switched), using multiple shapes and with some shapes filled in black.

BP1206 is like BP50 but instead of "no axis of symmetry at all" it uses "no vertical axis of symmetry".

BP335 Tessellates the plane vs. does not tessellate the plane.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

EX7152 is an example of a shape than can be stretched in such a way that it no longer tessellates the plane. This is a property that is only exhibited by shapes that tessellate with rotated copies of themselves. - Leo Crabbe, Mar 05 2021
