Tile Patterns

Front

What is a tile pattern?

Back

A tile pattern is a repeated arrangement of shapes or colors that creates a design, often used in flooring, walls, and art.

Front

What does 'growth' refer to in tile patterns?

Back

Growth refers to the increase in the number of tiles in a figure as the figure number increases.

Front

How do you determine the number of tiles in Figure 0?

Back

Figure 0 typically represents the starting point in a sequence, and the number of tiles can be defined or calculated based on the pattern.

Front

If Figure 0 contains 1 tile, what is the growth if Figure 1 contains 4 tiles?

Back

Growth = 4 - 1 = 3.

Front

What is the formula to calculate growth in tile patterns?

Back

Growth = Number of tiles in the current figure - Number of tiles in the previous figure.

Front

How many tiles would Figure 1 contain if Figure 0 has 1 tile and the growth is 3?

Back

Figure 1 would contain 1 + 3 = 4 tiles.

Front

What is the significance of understanding growth in tile patterns?

Back

Understanding growth helps in predicting the number of tiles in future figures and recognizing patterns.

Front

If Figure 0 has 2 tiles, what could be the growth if Figure 1 has 5 tiles?

Back

Growth = 5 - 2 = 3.

Front

What is the relationship between growth and the number of tiles in subsequent figures?

Back

Growth indicates how many more tiles are added as you move from one figure to the next.

Front

If the growth is consistently 2, how many tiles would Figure 3 have if Figure 0 has 1 tile?

Back

Figure 3 would have 1 + (3 * 2) = 7 tiles.
