 Introduction to Patterns and Numbers in
Nature and the World
 Human mind and culture have developed a formal
system of thought for recognizing, classifying, and
exploiting patterns called mathematics.

 Byusing mathematics to organize and systematize

our ideas about patterns, we have discovered a
great secret:
Nature’s patterns are not just there to be
admired, they are vital clues to the rules that
govern natural processes.
 Patterns
 Patterns-are regular, repeated or
recurring forms or design in which all the
members are related with each other by a
specific rule

 Studyingpatterns help in identifying

relationships and finding logical connections
to form generalizations and make
predictions.
 Examples

 Patterns
 Patterns are visible regularities found in
nature.

(1) Reflection
(2) Tessellations
(3) Waves
(4) Cracks
(5) Spirals
Pattern in Water/Bodies of Water
Pattern in Trees
Pattern in Landscapes
Pattern in Flowers
Pattern in Animals
 Symmetry
 Symmetry indicates that you can draw imaginary lines
across an object and the resulting parts are mirror
images each other.
 Line or bilateral symmetry:
-the left and the right portions of the center
axis are exactly the same
-evident in most animals, including humans
-an example is a butterfly
 Three-fold symmetry, five-fold symmetry, …, n-fold
symmetry (rotational symmetry of order n)

3. The petals of flowers
4. The sunflower
5. The shell
6. The seasons
 The Snowflakes
 No two
snowflakes are
exactly the
same.
 Each one of
them is unique.
 But, how unique
they may be,
they seem to
follow a certain
pattern or
symmetry.
