Given two types of tiles. The shape of each tile of the first type is a regular hexagon with a side of length 1. The shape of each tile of the second type is a regular hexagon with a side of length 2. An unlimited supply of tiles of each type is given. Is it possible to tile the entire plane using these tiles, using both types of tiles?
