== Related polyhedra and tilings ==
 
The planar tilings are related to [[polyhedra]]. Putting fewer triangles on a vertex leaves a gap and allows it to be folded into a [[pyramid (geometry)|pyramid]]. These can be expanded to [[Platonic solid]]s: five, four and three triangles on a vertex define an [[icosahedron]], [[octahedron]], and [[tetrahedron]] respectively.
 
This tiling is topologically related as a part of sequence of regular polyhedra with [[Schläfli symbol]]s {3,n}, continuing into the [[Hyperbolic space|hyperbolic plane]].
