You can see the rectified {3,infinity} on Don’s tessellation
page<http://www.plunk.org/~hatch/HyperbolicTesselations/>.
The rectified tilings are the ones with a tessellation value of 2. Two
views of the rectified {3,infinity} tiling are
here<http://www.plunk.org/~hatch/HyperbolicTesselations/inf_3_otherview_trunc2_512x512.gif>and
here<http://www.plunk.org/~hatch/HyperbolicTesselations/inf_3_trunc2_512x512.gif>
(the
blue lines those pictures), and you were right. The tiling is made of
4-gons with two ideal vertices, and three tiles meeting at both of the other
two vertices.
