THE WORLD'S CRAZIEST KITE... and COMBINATIONS.
Pascal's Triangle is a really neat pattern of numbers. The numbers in Pascal's Triangle represent mathematical combinations, given by the formula: nCr = n! / (r!)(n-r!) For example, if I have 10 people in a room, and I need to choose 3 people to join my team on a GCE scavenger hunt, there are 10C3 = 10! / 3! x 7! = 120 ways to choose 3 people. Look at Pascal's Triangle: The numbers in this triangle relate to the value in the formula above. Now, here's a very interesting kite picture. From more than 100 years ago! What is that crazy thing?? It's a kite created by Alexander Graham Bell (do you know who he is? You probably own something he invented!!) based on a geometric shape called a Sierpenski Triangle. I think it's incredibly cool. I like how the person is holding the kite with what looks like a fishing pole in the bottom of the picture. And you know what, Sierpenski Triangles 'live' inside of the Pascal Triangle, too. Wha...
