    Study Notes

    Introduction to Mathematics

    • Mathematics is the study of numbers and operations, and can be used to answer questions about quantity and measurement.
    • Mathematics involves logical reasoning, drawing conclusions from premises, and strategic reasoning based on rules, laws, or probabilities.
    • Mathematics can also be considered an art form that studies patterns for predictive purposes or a specialized language dealing with form, size, and quantity.

    Patterns in Nature

    • Patterns in nature are repeating forms found in the natural world, including the universe.
    • The study of patterns in nature led to the development of mathematics as a formal system of thought.
    • Patterns in nature offer clues about natural processes and are both aesthetically pleasing and useful.

    Fibonacci Sequence

    • The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones.
    • The sequence starts with 0 and 1: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, etc.
    • The Fibonacci sequence has been linked to patterns in nature, like the spirals of a pineapple or the branching of a tree.

    The Golden Ratio

    • The golden ratio is an irrational number, approximately 1.618.
    • It is often represented by the Greek letter phi (Φ).
    • The golden ratio is closely connected to the Fibonacci sequence.
    • As you proceed further in the fibonacci sequence, the ratio of consecutive numbers approaches the golden ratio.

    Applications of the Golden Ratio

    • The golden ratio is found in art, architecture, and design.
    • The proportions and aesthetics of many famous paintings, sculptures, and buildings are based on the golden ratio.
    • Many designers consider the golden ratio to be aesthetically pleasing and use it to make their creations more harmonious visually.

    Assessment

    • Identify patterns and numbers in nature.
    • Describe the Fibonacci sequence and its relationship to the golden ratio.
    • Explore the relationship between the golden ratio and Fibonacci numbers in the natural world.
    • Determine the application of the golden ratio in art and architecture.
