Patterns in the binomial expansion, Pascal


Realizing that (X+Y)n can be expanded with the help of Pascal's Triangle offers some pretty and interesting math play.  We love to bring a little fun and beauty into our math classes and the end results are neat!  Here is the first of 3 activities using Pascal's coloring.

This Binomial expansion activity could be used alone or coupled with our introductory Pascal activity: BinomialExpansion.pdf     Introduction&day1.pdf

If you wish to focus only on the coloring and Pascal's Triangle, you might use this Hexagonal grid paper.  Hexagon-grid.pdf

For Adventurer members we have editable Word docxs and solutions.
