In [[recreational mathematics]], a '''[[polyform]]''' is a [[plane (mathematics)|plane]] figure constructed by joining together identical basic [[polygon]]s. The basic polygon is often (but not necessarily) a [[Convex polygon|convex]] plane-filling polygon, such as a [[Square (geometry)|square]] or a [[triangle]]. More specific names have been given to polyforms resulting from specific basic polygons, as detailed in the table below. For example, a square basic polygon results in the well-known [[polyomino]]es. {{Cat main|Polyform}} {{Commons cat|Polyforms}} [[Category:Tiling puzzles]] [[Category:Types of polygons]] [[Category:Geometric shapes]]
