1. The Nature of A useful way to think about nature and our world
Mathematics
2. Cones Three-dimensional solids whose volume can be calculated by 1/3 x area of base
x-height.
3. Parallel lines Stretch to infinity, neither converging nor diverging.
4. Patterns In nature are visible regularities of form found in the natural world.
5. Golden Ratio A special number found by dividing a line into two parts so that the longer part
divided by the smaller part is also equal to the whole length divided by the longer
part
6. Fibonacci se- A set of numbers that starts with a one or a zero, followed by a one, and proceeds
quence based on the rule that each number is equal to the sum of the preceding two
numbers.
7. phi The ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter.
8. Leonardo da vinci An artist incorporated geometry into many of his paintings, with the Golden
9. Ratio being just one of his many mathematical tools
10. Symmetry A figure has two sides that are mirror images of one another. It would then be
possible to draw a line through a picture of the object and along either side the
image would look exactly the same
11. Bilateral symme- In which an object has two sides that are mirror images of each other.

12. Radial symmetry This is where there is a center point and numerous lines of symmetry could be
drawn.
