PATTERNS IN NATURE & THE WORLD
Mathematicians say that
several patterns among nature
can be observed.
Patterns are regular,
repeated or recurring forms or
designs.
 PATTERNS IN
NATURE
Spiral Pattern
• This pattern may
represent in two forms,
either clockwise or
anticlockwise or both.
• This pattern can be seen
in various types of nature
such as flowers, nautilus
shell, webs and staircase
designs.
PATTERNS IN NATURE
Hexagonal Patterns.
• Mathematically, the
hexagon shape has 6 sides.
• What makes this particular
pattern famous in terms of
architectural field is that
the hexagonal shape best
fills a plane with equal size
units and leaves no wasted
space.
 PATTERNS IN
NATURE
Stripe Patterns
• Stripes are made of
lines or bars of
color.
• Stripes are one of
the most ancient
patterns that can be
seen in nature.
 PATTERNS IN
NATURE
PATTERNS IN NATURE
• It can be seen among
water dropped with
ripple, sand dunes and
formation of typhoon.
• They serve as clues to
the flow of water and
air. These are just some
of the patterns that we
can see among nature.
 TESSELLATIONS, FRACTALS and SYMMETRY
A TESSELLATION
is created when a
shape is repeated
over and over
again covering a
plane without
any gaps or
overlaps.
 TESSELLATIONS, FRACTALS and SYMMETRY
FRACTALS
are complex patterns
that are self-similar
across different
scales.
They are created
by repeating a simple
process over and over
in an ongoing loop.
 TESSELLATIONS, FRACTALS and SYMMETRY
SYMMETRY is nature's
artwork that creates
harmony and balance.
Symmetry is seen
everywhere. People,
animals, plants,
everything on the earth
and outside is
symmetrical.
Fibonacci Sequence
•Fibonacci number is an integer in the infinite
sequence 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, … of which the
first two terms are 1 and 1 and each
succeeding term will be obtained by adding
the current term with the previous term.
•Invented by Leonardo Fibonacci, Italian
Mathematician that was originally known as
Leonardo of Pisa.
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, . . .

Golden Ratio/Spiral
or Divine Proportion
 Leonardo DaVinci truly
excelled in fields like
anatomy, engineering,
mathematics, science as well
as art.
However, one of the reasons
why Mona Lisa is so
famous is because of
DaVinci’s use of
Mathematical
Proportionality.
The value of the Golden Ratio
The value of the Golden Ratio (or
Divine Proportion) was
discovered by Euclid (Euclid of
Alexandria).
The Golden Ratio has a decimal
value of

99.9 the whole number
Example 1: Using the golden
ratio, find F10 of the Fibonacci
sequence.

Solutions:
(1.61804 10 -(1-1.618034) 10) ÷
ˆ ˆ
5
Example 1: Using the golden
ratio, find F10 of the Fibonacci
sequence.

Solutions:

=55.0
=55
Example 2: Using the golden
ratio, find F25 of the Fibonacci
sequence.

Solutions:

=75,025.0
=75,025
Example 3: Find F33 of the
Fibonacci sequence using the
value of the golden ratio.

Solutions:

=3,524,578.8
=3,524,579
Example 4: Solve for F43 of the
Fibonacci Sequence.

Solutions:

=433,494,566.6

=433,494,567
Example 5: What is the 34th term
or number in the Fibonacci
Sequence?

Solutions:

=5,702,888.3
=5,702,888
Activity:
Answer the questions below in a ½ crosswise yellow paper
1.) Give at least 3 real life examples of any pattern that
you can observe in our nature. Give those that we haven’t
used in our discussion today.
2.) Solve for F29 of the Fibonacci Sequence.
3.) What is the 36th term in the Fibonacci Sequence?

Answers for 2-3:

2.) F29 = 514,229
3.) F36 = 14,930,356
