Description

= = = Wow, I'm really proud of you ! ! **3,5 pts**  = =** Assignment ** = __http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal__ ** 1. There is a definition of fractals there. Please identify it and identify its components. ** A fractal (term to be defined)   is "a  rough or fragmented  __geometric__ shape (general class word)    that __ can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole  (characteristics)  __," [1]   a property called  self-similarity. Roots of mathematical interest on fractals can be traced back to the late 19th Century; however, the term "fractal" was coined by Benoît Mandelbrot   in 1975 and was __derived from the __  __Latin__   __fractus__   __meaning "broken " or "fractured __  __(characteristics)__  ." A mathematical fractal is __based on an __ __equation__   __that undergoes iteration, a form offeedback__   __based on recursion ( characteristics of mathematical fractal )__. [2] Other adjectives **Good**
 * I. In the text you will find when you click the link below, extract the first two paragraphs and please find all the characteristics of fractals and **** __underline__ ** ** them. Also find the adjectives and ****circle **** them. Be careful ! ! ! **

**2. There is a description there, please identify it and tell me how you found it. What helped you when locating it.**

** Description: ** A fractal often has the following features: [3] § __It has a fine structure at arbitrarily small scales.__ § __ It is too irregular to be easily described in traditional  __ __Euclidean  geometric __   language. § __ It is  __ self-similar   __ (at least approximately or   __ stochastically). § __ It has a  __ Hausdorff dimension   __ which is greater than its   topological dimension (although this requirement is not met by   __ space-filling curves   __ such as the   __ Hilbert curve).[4] § __ It has a simple and  recursive definition __. Because they appear similar at all levels of magnification, __fractals are often considered to be infinitely complex (in informal terms). Natural objects that approximate fractals to a degree include clouds, mountain ranges, lightning bolts, coastlines, snow flakes, various vegetables (cauliflower and broccoli), and animal coloration patterns. However, not all self-similar objects are fractals—for example, the __ __real line__   __(a straight__ __Euclidean__   __line) is formally self-similar but fails to have other fractal characteristics; for instance, it is regular enough to be described in Euclidean terms.

**I found the description __with phrase than say__ because of the phrase "A fractal often has the following features". The description has many adjectives. The adjectives were a great help too.** **Good**

**II. Now write a description of any mathematical word or topic.** **A regular polygon is a geometric figure. __It has all sides equal__** **Its sides are all equal as well as its interior angles** **, __all interior angles equal__. A regular polygon can be inscribed in a circle, where, each vertex touches __to__** **omit** **the circle. If a regular polygon has many sides, it will look like a circle.** **Good**
