LESSON 2

Identify the Fibonacci sequence and


its origin

Apply the recurrence relation and


golden ratio to find the nth term of a
Fibonacci sequence
Create an artwork showcasing the
Golden Spiral
Fibonacci Numbers
This was developed in the Middle Ages
and was named after the famous Italian
Mathematician who happened to discover
Fibonacci, Leonardo Pisano Bigollo
Fibonacci is a short term for the latin
filius bonacci which means “the son of
Bonacci”
Fibonacci Numbers

In 1202, Leonardo Pisano Bigollo published his


most prominent work the Liber Abaci (The Book
of Calculating) which he introduced his famous
rabbit problem.
As the number “1,1,2,3” is the initial number in
the sequence, Fibonacci Day is observed on
November 23.
THE RABBIT PROBLEM
If a pair of rabbits is put
into a walled enclosure
room to breed, how many
pairs of rabbits will there
be after a year if it is
assumed that every month
each pair produces one
new pair, which begins to
bear young two months
after its own birth?
THE RABBIT PROBLEM

It is in their nature to
produce a new pair
every month and they
give birth for the first
time in the second
month after their birth.
EXAMPLE OF THE APPLICATION OF
FIBONACCI NUMBERS

• Sunflower can contain the number 89 or 144.

• Palm trees that show the numbers in the


rings on their trunks
It is the series of numbers 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55,....

The sequence begins with zero or one. Each subsequent


number is found by getting the sum of the two preceding
numbers.
In particular:
2 is found by adding the two numbers before it (1 + 1)
3 is found by adding the two numbers before it (1 + 2)
5 is found by adding the two numbers before it (2 + 3)
8 is from (3 + 5), and so on.
Consider all the Fibonacci Sequences, and number each term from 0 onward.

If we want to find the 8th term, that is 7th term plus the 6th term, which is:
This kind of rule is called a recurrence relation. Mathematically, this
is written into a functional notation that is:

Using the recurrence relation, calculate the value of .


Answer the following:

• Find the 12th term of the Fibonacci sequence.

• Calculate the value of the 14th and the 19th terms of


the Fibonacci sequence.
THE FIBONACCI
SPIRAL
the most prominent geometric
application of Fibonacci numbers in
our nature.

It is created by drawing a series of connected quarter-circles


inside a set of squares that are sized according to the Fibonacci
sequence.
The spiral starts with a small square, followed by a larger square
that is adjacent to the first square. The next square is sized
according to the sum of the two previous squares, and so on.
Each quarter-circle fits perfectly within the next square in the
sequence, creating a spiral pattern that expands outward
infinitely.
Observe the results if we take any two successive (one
after the other) Fibonacci numbers, as shown below:
It is an irrational number and it is approximately
equivalent to 1.61803398875

Also, it is a special number also known as the Golden


Section, Golden Mean, or Divine Proportion which exists
when a line is divided into two parts, and the longer part
(a) is divided by the smaller part (b) is equal to the sum
of (a) + (b) divided by (a), which both equal 1.618.
Using the Golden ratio, we can calculate the estimated
value of any Fibonacci number, where:
Answer the following using the Golden Ratio formula with
Phi = 1.618. Round off your answer to the nearest whole
number.
More so, here’s the exact formula for computing
the nth term of the Fibonacci sequence.
1 Fibonacci 2 Golden Ratio 3 EXACT
Sequence FORMULA
A sequence in which Also known as Phi,
every number is the its approximate
sum of two numbers value is 1.618
preceding it in the
sequence.
In a short bond paper, create an artwork showcasing
the Golden Spiral.
