No. To tessellate a plane you would also need squares.
No, it is not possible.
Yes. :] Yes. :]
Triangles or squares or hexagons. There are also mixtures, like octagons plus squares.
there are 4 different kinds of tessellations. you can choose which type of tesselation to make.
If the octagon is regular (all sides and angles are the same size), then the perimeter would be 80 units or 10*8. Think of how much fence you would need to make that octagon in a field.

Eight triangles of equal size form a regular octagon.
You cannot use a regular octagon on it's own to make a tiling pattern without any gaps. However a regular Octagon and a square can be used together to make a tessellation. Many people think that regular octagons tesselate on their own because they do not appreciate the need for no gaps.
No Internat angle of a regular octagon is 135°. No multiple of 135° will make 360°. Thus at any point there can be at most two octagons and a 90° gap. Ratty
Not at all. One way to make it would be to cut the corners off a square.

If is a regular octagon (like a stop sign) then yes. The only requirement for a polygon to be an octagon is that it have 8 sides. Try it out, you can make all sorts of 8-sided polygons that look nothing like a stop sign but that are still octagons.
The interior angles of a regular octagon are each 135 degrees.
