Final answer:

No, it is not possible to create a regular tessellation with a regular heptagon.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is not possible to create a regular tessellation with a regular heptagon. A regular tessellation can be created only with regular polygons that have interior angles that divide evenly into 360 degrees. The interior angle of a regular heptagon is 128.57 degrees, which does not divide evenly into 360 degrees.
