Exploration of Lacsap’s Fractions The following will be an investigation of Lacsap’s Fractions‚ that is‚ a set of numbers that are presented in a symmetrical pattern. It is an interesting point that ‘Lacsap’ is ‘Pascal’ backwards‚ which hints that the triangle below will be similar to “Pascal’s Triangle”. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 There are many patterns evident in this triangle‚ for instance I can see

MATH PORTFOLIO NUMBER OF PIECES Kanishk Malhotra 003566-035 (May 2012) In physics and mathematics‚ the ‘DIMENSION’ of a space or object is informally defined as the minimum number of coordinates needed to specify each point within it. Thus a line has a dimension of one because only one coordinate is needed to specify a point on it. A surface such as a plane or the surface of a cylinder or sphere has a dimension of two because two coordinates are needed to specify a point on it (for
