The trioctagonal tiling or toct is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. 2 octagons and 2 triangles join at each vertex. It can be formed from the rectification of either the octagonal tiling or its dual order-8 triangular tiling.
Representations[edit | edit source]
A trioctagonal tiling has the following Coxeter diagrams:
- o8x3o () (full symmetry)
- o3x4x3*a () (half symmetry)
