1) Study the sequence of shapes below built out of squares. How many squares would be in the nth term of the sequence?
|
Let n = the term number (1, 2, 3, ...)
These shapes are made up of 3 parts:
- The top horizontal row which is (in terms of n) ______
- The bottom vertical shapes which are (in terms of n) ____
- the ones in between which are (in terms of n) _____
Add these 3 parts together to get an expression for the total number of squares for each n:
Squares in shape n = ______________
|
2) What is the next term in this sequence:
    1, 2, 2, 4, 8, 32, 256, __
|
Each term is the product of the previous 2 terms, so the next term is ______
|
3) What is the 8th term in the following sequence?
    0th     SOHCAHTOA
    1st     AOTHACHOS
    2nd     AOHACHOS
    3rd     SOHCAHOA
    4th     SOCAHOA
|
- The input sequence with some spaces to clarify:
    0th     SOHCAHTOA
    1st     AOTHACHOS
    2nd     AO   HACHOS
    3rd     SOHCAHOA
    4th     SO   CAHOA
- With the spaces, above, you should be able to figure out the sequence of actions. Write out each term until you get to the 8th:
5th term:
6th term:
7th term:
8th term: ______________
