Symmetry

Truncated tetraheptagonal tiling with mirror lines

The dual to this tiling represents the fundamental domains of [7,4] (*742) symmetry. There are 3 small index subgroups constructed from [7,4] by mirror removal and alternation. In these images fundamental domains are alternately colored black and white, and mirrors exist on the boundaries between colors.
