Pascal's Triangle
To build the triangle, start with "1" at the top, then continue placing numbers below it in a triangular pattern.
Each number is the numbers directly above it added together.
(Here I have highlighted that 1+3 = 4)
Patterns Within the Triangle
Diagonals
The first diagonal is, of course, just "1"sThe next diagonal has the Counting Numbers (1,2,3, etc).
The third diagonal has the triangular numbers
(The fourth diagonal, not highlighted, has the tetrahedral numbers.)
Symmetrical
The triangle is also symmetrical. The numbers on the left side have identical matching numbers on the right side, like a mirror image.Horizontal Sums
What do you notice about the horizontal sums?Is there a pattern?
They double each time (powers of 2).
