In geometry, the rhombitetraheptagonal tiling is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of rr{4,7}. It can be seen as constructed as a rectified tetraheptagonal tiling, r{7,4}, as well as an expanded order-4 heptagonal tiling or expanded order-7 square tiling.

Dual tiling

The dual is called the deltoidal tetraheptagonal tiling with face configuration V.4.4.4.7.
