The Petrial square tiling is one of the three regular skew tilings of the Euclidean plane. 4 zigzags meet at each vertex. The Petrial square tiling is the Petrie dual of the square tiling, so it is in the same regiment.
Vertex coordinates[edit | edit source]
The vertex coordinates of the Petrial square tiling are the same as those of the square tiling.

The Petrial square tiling is the apeir of the square, its vertex figure.
The rectification of the Petrial square tiling is the square-hemiapeirogonal tiling, which is a uniform tiling.
