    #2 - Prelim - The Fibonacci Sequence

    The document discusses the Fibonacci sequence. It was discovered by Leonardo Fibonacci in the 13th century when investigating the reproductive growth of rabbits. The sequence results from adding the previous two terms: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, etc. Many aspects of nature display the Fibonacci sequence or golden ratio patterns, like spirals in sunflowers and fruit segments. The sequence and ratio are seen as examples of mathematical patterns in biology.

    The Fibonacci Sequence

    Leonardo of Pisa - Fibonacci


    Fibonacci is the greatest
    European mathematician of
    the middle ages.

    Born 1170 and died in 1240.

    He introduced the Arabic


    number system in Europe.

    Origin of Fibonacci
    Sequence
    Origin of Fibonacci Sequence

     Fibonacci sequence was


    discovered after an
    investigation on the
    reproduction of rabbits.

    Growing Population of Rabbits
     Problem: Suppose a newly-
    born pair of rabbits (one
    male, one female) are put in
    a field. Rabbits are able to
    mate at the age of one month
    so that at the end of the
    second month, a female can
    produce another pair
    rabbits.

    Fibonacci Sequence
     Fibonacci sequence is an integer in the infinite sequence:
    1 , 1 , 2 , 3 , 5 , 8 , 13 , ………
    … of which the first two terms are 1 and 1 and each succeeding
    term is the sum of the two immediately preceding.

     Simple Rule: add the last two to get the next.

    Fibonacci Sequence
    How many pairs will there be
    in one year?

    1,1,2,3,5,
    8 , 13 , 21 ,
    34 , 55 , 89 ,
    144 , …

     So 144 pairs will be there at


    the end of one year.

    Banana 3 Apple 5 MATH?

    No, but their growth is


    based on this sequence.

    Many fruits and vegetables


    display Fibonacci number.

    The Golden Ratio
    The Golden Ratio
    The golden ratio is often denoted by the
    Greek letter φ (Phi).

    This is approximately equal to 1.618.

     The golden ration can


    be expressed as the
    ratio between two
    numbers.
