Creating a Fractal Cantor Set Fractal Vocabulary Reduce Take an original shape, select a fraction and reduce the size of the original shape Replicate Take the reduce shape, select a number and replicate the reduced shape Rebuild Use the replicated shapes and rebuild the original shape Iterate Repeat the set of steps listed above to each set of pictures To create a fraction you will begin with a geometric figure (called Stage 0), reduce it, replicate it, and rebuild it to form Stage 1. To create the next stage you will iterate the steps used on Stage 0 to a new stage to form the next stage. Can you describe how to create Stage 3? Reduce Stage 2 Replicate it Rebuild it What would the reduction look like for the Stage 4? Can you see what is happening as we move to the next stage? This is an example of a well known fractal known as the Cantor Set The fractal is never finished. It goes on forever. These are just the first five stages. Now it’s your turn to create the fractal On the grid paper create a line that is 27 units long. Reduce it Replicate it Rebuild it Iterate it to create Stage 0, Stage 1, Stage 2, and Stage 3. Let’s collect some Math How long is the yellow section in each stage? Let’s collect some Math The length of the blue section in Stage 2 is what fraction of the blue section in Stage 1? Let’s collect some Math Rewrite the length of the blue for Stage 3 using the fraction 2/3 Let’s collect some Math How long will the blue section be in Stage 5? Let’s collect some Math Will the length of the blue section ever equal zero? Let’s collect some Math Let’s collect some Math Let’s collect some Math Creating a Fractal Cantor Set * 1. Begin with 27 connected cubes 2. Reduce the 27 cubes to 1/3 of its cubes 3. Replicate the shape 2 times 4. Rebuild the shape Stage 0 Stage 1 Stage 1 To create Stage 2 start with Stage 1, reduce it, replicate it, and rebuild it. Reduce it: Replicate it: Rebuild it: Stage 0 Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 0 Stage 1 Stage 2 Stage 3 Replica
