Question 1 - Relation of Shape Sequences to Number Sequences - Chapter 1 Class 6 - Patterns in Mathematics (Ganit Prakash)

Transcript

Question 1 Count the number of sides in each shape in the sequence of Regular Polygons. Which number sequence do you get? What about the number of corners in each shape in the sequence of Regular Polygons? Do you get the same number sequence? Can you explain why this happens?Number of sides in Regular Polygons follows pattern 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,… Number of corners in Regular Polygons also follows pattern 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,… The number of sides and number of corners are same because In a polygon, each side connects two corners, and each corner is formed by the meeting of two sides. Therefore, the number of sides equals the number of corners.
