Lesson 2 Fibonacci Sequence

The document discusses the Fibonacci sequence, which is a sequence of numbers where each subsequent number is the sum of the previous two, starting with 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, etc. The Fibonacci sequence has applications to geometry through the Fibonacci spiral and golden ratio, which is approximately 1.618. Many aspects of nature exhibit the patterns of the Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio, including spirals in sunflowers, pinecones, and aspects of human and animal forms.

Fibonacci Sequence

Types of Sequence
• 3, 6, 9, 12, . . .
• 10, 15, 20, 25, . . .
• Arithmetic Sequence
• - sequence with common
difference

• 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 , . . .
• 5,15, 45, 135 , . . .
• Geometric sequence
- sequence with common ratio
• FIBONACCI SEQUENCE

• Leonardo Fibonacci discovered


the sequence.
• Fibonacci, also called Leonardo
Pisano, English Leonardo of
Pisa, original name Leonardo
Fibonacci, (born c. 1170, Pisa?
—died after 1240), medieval
Italian
Fibonacci Sequence
• The sequence begins with one.
Each subsequent number is the
sum of the two preceding
numbers.

• Thus the sequence begins as


follows:

• 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89,


144….
The Fibonacci Spiral

• The Fibonacci numbers have geometric applications.


• The Fibonacci spiral is constructed by placing together
rectangles of relative side lengths equaling Fibonacci
numbers.
• Recall: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13….
• A spiral can then be drawn starting from the corner of the
first rectangle of side length 1, all the way to the corner of
the rectangle of side length 13.
Golden Ratio
• In mathematics and the arts, two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio
between the sum of those quantities and the larger one is the same as the
ratio between the larger one and the smaller.

• In this case, we refer to a very important number that is


known as the golden ratio.
• The golden ratio is a mathematical constant approximately
1.6180339887.
Golden ratio and Fibonacci numbers
Recall:
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597,
...

When we divide one of the Fibonacci numbers to the previous


one, we will get results that are so close to each other.
Moreover, after the 13th number in the sequence, the ratio
will be fixed at approximately 1.618…
233 / 144 = 1.62 377 / 233 = 1.62 610 / 377= 1.62
987 / 610 = 1.62 1597 / 987= 1.62 2584 / 1597 = 1.62
Vitruvian Man

Leonardo Da Vinci has long been


associated with the golden ratio.
“Vitruvian Man” illustrates that
the human body is proportioned
according to the golden ratio.

An American researcher, Jay


Hambridge, established that the
golden ratio can also be found in
the human body.
