nature and in world
Week 1
 Types of Pattern in Nature
• A. FRACTALS
-Fractals
are never-ending
patterns that are self-
similar across different
scales.
- Applying the operation of
shrinking and moving -example of pattern fractal
applied many times
Types of Pattern in Nature
• A. FRACTALS
-It Involve symmetry of
magnification (Dilation)

- It a shape that you could

zoom in on a part of it in an
infinite number of times and
it would look the same
 Types of Pattern in Nature
• B. FRACTALS PROPERTIES
-1. Self Similarity- appear the same under
magnification.
2. Fractional Dimension
3. Formation of Iteration- form by a repeating
process.

 Types of Pattern in Nature
• B. SPIRALS
-Spirals are curved patterns made by series of
circular shapes revolving around central point.

- Example of spiral pattern :

 Types of Pattern in Nature
• C. CHAOS
-Chaos or chaotic pattern are simple patterns
created from complicated underlying behavior.
-It used to described a kind of order which lacks
predictability.
 Types of Pattern in Nature
• C. CHAOS ( Applications/Examples)

Example of Chaotic
Pattern
-tree branches

Clouds in Canary
Island
 Types of Pattern in Nature
• D. SYMMETRY
-Symmetry is the exact correspondence of form
and constituent configuration on the opposite
sides of dividing line or plane or about a center or
an axis. (The American Heritage Dictionary)

- In Mathematics, an object are said to have

symmetry when it remains unchanged after
after transformations such as rotation and
scaling are applied to it.
 Different type of
SYMMETRY
• A. ReflectionSymmetry
-Also called as mirror
symmetry, line symmetry
or bilateral symmetry.
- It is made with a line
going through an object
which divides it into two e.g. Sea shells
pieces which are mirror
images of each other.
 Different type of
SYMMETRY
• A. Reflection Symmetry (Examples)

e.g. Deer Horn

 Different type of
SYMMETRY
• B. Rotational Symmetry
-Also called as radial
symmetry
- It is exhibit by objects when
their similar parts are
regularly arranged around a
central axis and the pattern
e.g. 3 petal flower
looks the same after a
certain amount of rotation.
 Different type of
SYMMETRY
• B. Rotational Symmetry

e.g. 5 petal flower

 Different type of
SYMMETRY

e.g. starfish

e.g. kiwi
 Different type of
SYMMETRY

 Different type of
SYMMETRY
• C. Translational
Symmetry
-It is exhibit by objects which
do not change its size and
shape even if it moved to
another location.
(Note: the movement does e.g. leaves
not involve with reflection or
rotation.)
