Articles related to "Self Similarity"One of the interesting developments of modern mathematics is the exploration of new forms of geometry which do not adhere to "standard" definitions.
Fractal geometry and chaos theory are two very interconnected forms of mathematics. It is difficult to fully understand one without also knowing the other.
Clever mathematicians over the years have devised some interesting and visually stunning examples of fractal figures which help them to better understand this concept.
Everyone "knows" that snowflakes have six arms (also known as dendrites) and that no two snowflakes can be perfectly alike, but this is not entirely true.
