Watch the youtube video “Doodling in Math Class: Spirals, Fibonacci, and Being a Plant [1 of 3]” by Vi Hart: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahXIMUkSXX0&list=PLF7CBA45AEBAD18B8

  1. On a piece of graph paper, draw the Fibonacci Spiral (1:11).
  2. Notice that the side lengths of each successive rectangle are the numbers in the Fibonacci sequence. Fill out the following chart where Sn represents the side length of each successive rectangle.
S1 S2 S3 S4 S5 S6 S7 S8

 

  1. Now calculate each of the following ratios (accurate to 3 decimals):
S2/S1 S3/S2 S4/S3 S5/S4 S6/S5 S7/S6 S8/S7
  1. Use the internet to find the golden ratio. What is the number?
  2. What is Sn/Sn-1?
