Mathematicians- Lesson 4 How have these creative people moved and explored ideas in mathematics?

Fibonacci 1202-Introduced Hindu-Arabic number system into Europe the positional system we use today - based on ten digits with its decimal point and a symbol for zero Order of ordinals matters My exploration of numbers showed patterns in nature.

In mathematics and the arts, two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio between the sum of those quantities and the larger one is the same as the ratio between the larger one and the smaller. Fibonaccis Golden Ratio

Fib Sunflowers Bracts of a pinecone Petals of a flower Fibonacci in Nature How does this pattern affect the way we look at our natural world?

It is quite amazing that the Fibonacci number patterns occur so frequently in nature ( flowers, shells, plants, leaves, to name a few ) that this phenomenon appears to be one of the principal "laws of nature". Fibonacci sequences appear in biological settings, in two consecutive Fibonacci numbers, such as branching in trees, arrangement of leaves on a stem, the fruitlets of a pineapple, the flowering of artichoke, an uncurling fern and the arrangement of a pine cone. Why?

……is a universal law in which is contained the ground-principle of all formative striving for beauty and completeness in the realms of both nature and art, and which permeates, as a paramount spiritual ideal, all structures, forms and proportions, whether cosmic or individual, organic or inorganic, acoustic or optical; which finds its fullest realization, however, in the human form. The Golden Ratio

Fun with Fibonacci The sequence, in which each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers is known as the Fibonacci series: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, 2584, 4181,... (each number is the sum of the previous two).

Age 12 Discovered the sum of the angles of a triangle are two right angles(90+90=180) Invented calculator Blaise Pascal

To build the triangle, start with "1" at the top, then continue placing numbers below it in a triangular pattern. Each number is just the two numbers above it added together (except for the edges, which are all "1"). Try This……..
