mathematics in modern world prelim

Patterns of visual

Patterns of flow

Patterns of movement

Patterns of rhythm

Patterns of texture

Geometric patterns

Different kinds of pattern

Patterns of visual

Are often unpredictable, never quite repeatable and often contains fractals.

Patterns of flow

The flow of liquids provides an and exhaustible supplies of natures patterns.

Patterns of movement

In the human walk, the feet strike the ground in a regular rhythm

Patterns of rhythm

Concevably the most basic pattern in nature

Patterns of texture

Is a quality of a certain object that you sense through touch

Geometric patterns

Consists of series of shapes that are typically repeated

Reflectional symmetry

Line symmetry or mirror symmetry

Reflectional symmetry

Capture symmetries when the same after some rotation (of less than one full turn)

Sequence

Set of things (usually numbers) that are in order

Arithmetic sequence

Check for common difference

An=A1+(n-1)d

Arithmetic sequence formula

Sn=n/2(2A1+(n-1)d)

Arithmetic series formula

Translational symmetry

When units are repeated and turn out to have identical figures ex. Brocolli

Rotational symmetry

Still look the same after some rotation
