Semester Project




Fibonacci Sequence

My semester project is on the Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio. I will explore how the Fibonacci sequence was discovered, where it is seen in nature, and how we use it today. I will also discuss how we calculate the golden ratio, and why it is so golden. My project consists of five parts, with an additional page for my sources. I will start off with an introduction to gain interest in learning about a sequence and number. Then I will discuss the history and background of how we discovered the Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio are, as well as what they are. Next, I will explain the mathematics of the calcuations and special properties of the golden ratio. After is the section about the significance and application, where I go through some of the multiple examples in our world. Lastly is the extensions page where I go beyond the explanations and discuss some of the discoveries that relate to other topics in mathematics. Please enjoy, and stay golden!
