Small rhombitrihexagonal tiling

Small rhombitrihexagonal tiling

In geometry, the small rhombitrihexagonal tiling (or just " rhombitrihexagonal tiling") is a semiregular tiling of the Euclidean plane. There are one triangle, two squares, and one hexagon on each vertex. It has Schläfli symbol of "t0,2{3,6}".

Conway calls it a rhombihexadeltille.

There are 3 regular and 8 semiregular tilings in the plane.

This tiling is topologically related as a part of sequence of cantellated polyhedra with vertex figure (3.4.n.4), and continues as tilings of the hyperbolic plane. These vertex-transitive figures have (*n32) reflectional symmetry.

There is only one uniform colorings in a small rhombitrihexagonal tiling. (Naming the colors by indices around a vertex (3.4.6.4): 1232.)
