Explore the phenomenon known as Pascal’s Triangle and follow the number trail contained in it to look at Art, Music, Botany and brackets.
We will explore the phenomenon known as Pascal’s Triangle and will follow the number trail contained in it to look at Art, Music, Botany and multiplying out brackets. We will look at different ways that Pascal’s triangle appears in different places within our world and marvel at the interconnections.
This session is of interest to anyone who enjoys number work and most of the time we will only be doing some addition and multiplication, although there will be a few minutes when we do a bit of algebra.
