Recursive Toothpick Pattern

Materials Needed
Box of Toothpicks
 Step 1: Make Figures 1–3 of the pattern using as few
toothpicks as possible. How many toothpicks does it take to
reproduce each figure? How many toothpicks lie on the
perimeter of each figure?
 Step 2: Copy the table with enough rows for six figures of the
pattern. Make Figures 4–6 from toothpicks by adding
triangles in a row and complete the table.
 Step 3 What is the rule for finding the number of toothpicks
in each figure? What is the rule for finding the perimeter?
Use your calculator to create recursive routines for these
rules. Check that these routines generate the numbers in
your table.
 Step 4: Now make Figure 10 from toothpicks. Count the
number of toothpicks and find the perimeter. Does your
calculator routine give the same answers? Find the number of
toothpicks and the perimeter for Figure 25.
 Find the missing values in each sequence.
