The petrial hexagonal tiling is one of the three regular skew tilings of the Euclidean plane. 3 zigzags meet at each vertex. The petrial hexagonal tiling is the Petrie dual of the hexagonal tiling.

Vertex coordinates[edit | edit source]

The vertex coordinates of the Petrial hexagonal tiling are the same as those of the hexagonal tiling.

The Petrial hexagonal tiling as the apeir of the triangle

The Petrial hexagonal tiling is the apeir of the triangle, its vertex figure.

The rectification of the petrial hexagonal tiling is the triangular-hemiapeirogonal tiling, which is a uniform tiling.
