Hidden Patterns of the Pascal’s Triangle

Numbers that are arranged in a triangle so that the number connecting two numbers above is the sum of

those two numbers is called a Pascal’s Triangle. The following patterns can be found in a Pascal’s Triangle.

In each row, the number is read the same forwards and backwards 1
(11, 121, 1331). 11 1
The sum of each row follows a pattern so that each row is two times 1
the sum of the previous row (1, 2, 4, 8, 16). 21 2 1
The sum of the numbers of each blue diagonal follows the Fibonacci
Sequence. 31 3 3 1
Students will be able to develop their ability to find patterns by 51 4 6 4 1
