1.2 Systemizing Patterns Through Math

1. Patterns refer to procedures or rules that determine subsequent terms in a sequence. Sequences are ordered arrangements of numbers. 2. Examples of patterns include arithmetic sequences, where the difference between consecutive terms is constant, and geometric sequences, where each term is formed by multiplying the previous term by the same number. 3. To find subsequent terms, one looks for the pattern or rule governing the sequence, such as adding a constant, multiplying by a constant, or taking a fixed operation like division.

2 Systemizing Patterns through Math

Patterns and Sequences


Patterns and Sequences

Patterns refer to usual types of procedures or rules that can be followed.


Patterns are useful to predict what came before or what might
come after a set a numbers that are arranged in a particular order.
This arrangement of numbers is called a sequence.
For example:
3,6,9,12 and 15 are numbers that form a pattern called a sequence
The numbers that are in the sequence are called terms.
Patterns and Sequences
• Arithmetic sequence (arithmetic progression) – A
sequence of numbers in which the difference
between any two consecutive numbers or
expressions is the same.
• Geometric sequence – A sequence of numbers in
which each term is formed by multiplying the
previous term by the same number or
expression.
Arithmetic Sequence

Find the next three numbers or terms in each pattern.

Look for a pattern: usually a procedure or rule that uses the same number or
expression each time to find the next term.
The pattern is to add 5 to each term.

The next three terms are:
