Answer:

False.

Explanation:

It is not possible to create a regular tessellation with a regular heptagon. A regular tessellation refers to a pattern of repeating shapes that completely covers a flat surface without any gaps or overlaps. The only regular polygon shapes that can form regular tessellations are the equilateral triangle, square, and hexagon. Regular heptagons do not have the symmetry necessary to form a repeating pattern that covers a flat surface without gaps or overlaps.
