Well a Sierpinski Triangle is a triangle mad up of 69 small triangles.
Waclaw Sierpinski!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how can't you find this out!
The Sierpinski Triangle
The Sierpinski triangle is a fractal (named after Waclaw Sierpinski).The base state for this fractal is a single triangle. Pick one of the vertices on the triangle and define that vertex as "pointing up" (this helps when describing the fractal without pictures).Upon each iteration, take each triangle which is pointing up and inscribe an inverted triangle inside of it. The new triangle should have one vertex at the midpoint of each of the sides of the triangle it is in. This will effectively divide the original triangle into four equally sized triangles, three of which are oriented the same way as the original (they point up), and one of which is inverted (points down).See the related links section for a graphical view of this fractal, as well as detail about the math behind it.
The formula to calculate the area of a triangle is A = 1/2 * base * height, where A represents the area, the base is the length of the triangle's base, and the height is the perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite vertex. This formula is derived from the fact that the area of a triangle is half the product of its base and height. By plugging in the values for the base and height into the formula, you can easily determine the area of the triangle.
