  • IVG
    What completes the following pattern? CSD, ETF, GUH,_______, KWL
  • Set
    A well defined collection of objects or elements.
  • Disjoint Set
    Two sets that do not share any common element.
  • Unit
    A set with only one element.
  • Equivalent
    Two sets that contain the same number of elements.
  • Finite
    A set that contains a countable number of elements.
  • Golden Rectangle
    A rectangle where the ratio of the longer side to the shorter side is equal to the golden ratio.
  • 1.6180
    The approximate value of the golden ratio, represented by the Greek letter (phi)
  • Fibonacci Sequence
    A sequence of numbers where each term is the sum of two preceding one, and its ratio of consecutive terms approaches the golden ratio as the sequence progresses.
  • Parthenon
    A famous structure in Greece, often cited as an example of the golden ratio applied in achitecture.
  • Rhythm
    It said to be the most basic pattern in nature.
  • Geometric
    What kind of pattern is a series of shapes that are repeating?
  • Leonardo Da Vinci
    The famous Renaissance artist and polymath who used the golden ratio in his works and studies of human proportions.
  • Deductive Reasoning
    The type of reasoning used when solving puzzle or mystery by plecing together clues to form a logical conclusion.
  • Inductive
    A form reasoning where conclusions are considered probable, but not guaranteed, even if the premises are true.
  • Pattern of Visuals
    Are often predictable never quite repeatable, and often contain fractals.
    • Examples in seeds and pinecones to the branches and leaves.
  • Patterns of Flow
    The flow of liquids provides an inexhaustible supply of nature’s patterns. Patterns of flow are usually found in the water, stone, and
    even in the growth of trees.
  • Patterns of Movement. In the human walk, the feet strike the ground in a
    regular rhythm: the left-right-left-right-left rhythm. When a horse, a four-
    legged creature walks, there is more of a complex but equally rhythmic pattern.
  • Patterns of Rhythm. Rhythm is conceivably the most basic pattern in nature.
    Our hearts and lungs follow a regular repeated pattern of sounds or
    movement whose timing is adapted to our body’s needs.
  • Patterns of Texture. A texture is a quality of a certain object that we sense
    through touch. It exists as a literal surface that we can feel, see, and imagine.
  • Geometric Patterns. A geometric pattern is a kind of pattern which consists of
    a series of shapes that are typically repeated.
  • Patterns found in Nature
    -Spots and Stripes
    -Spirals
  • Symmetry - indicates that you can draw an imaginary line across an object
    and the resulting parts are mirror images of each other.
  • sometimes called line symmetry or mirror symmetry, captures symmetries when the left half of a pattern is the same as the right half.
  • Rotational Symmetry
    Spiderwort with three-fold symmetry
    Starfish five-fold symmetry
  • Order of Rotation (Formula)
  • Translations - It exists in patterns that we see in nature and man-made objects. Translations acquire symmetries when units are repeated and turn out having identical figures.
  • Symmetries in Nature
    Leonardo da Vinci’s Vitruvian Man showing the proportions and symmetry of the human body
  • Symmetries in Nature
  • Snowflake six-fold symmetry
  • A sequence is an ordered list of numbers, called terms, that
    may have repeated values. The arrangement of these terms is
    set by a definite rule.
  • Types of Sequence
    1. Arithmetic Sequence
    2. Geometric Sequence
    3. Harmonic Sequence
    4. Fibonacci Sequence
  • The Fibonacci numbers or sequence are the numbers in the following integer sequence:
    1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, ...
    And on this sequence we could see that there would be what we called the Golden Ratio.
  • FORMULA FOR FIBONACCI SEQUENCE
  • Golden Ratio and Golder Rectangle with Spiral
  • According to Ivanka Stipancic-Klaic and Josipa Matotek of the University of Osijek, Croatia, the Golden ratio fascinates and intrigues not only
    mathematicians, but also artists, architects, biologists, philosophers and
    musicians. This golden ratio was first studied by the ancient Greek because of its frequent appearance in geometry.
  • The development of the idea of the golden ratio is usually attributed to
    Pythagoras (580-497 BC) and his students. It is often represented by the
    Greek letter τ (tau) which means “the cut” or “the section” in Greek. But,
    Mark Barr (early 18th century) represented the golden ratio as φ (phi)
    because it is the first letter in the name of Greek architect and sculptor Phidias who’s work often symbolized the golden ratio.
  • The ratio is came from to a line segment divided according to the golden
    ratio where the larger part is to the smaller part as the whole part is to the larger part, thus;
  • Approximate vale of phi
  • Golden Ratio can be seen also in the Fibonacci number.
