Special Sequences WORKSHEET
Suitable for Grades: Algebra II, IM 2
CCSS: HSF.BF.A.2
CCSS Description: Write arithmetic and geometric sequences both recursively and with an explicit formula; use them to model situations and translate between the two forms.
Special Sequences WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet takes a look at various types of sequences: triangle and square numbers, Fibonacci style, and quadratic.
Each section focuses on a different style of sequence. Students will look at visual representations of triangle and square numbers. Nth terms are used to generate sequences, find given terms in sequences, and decide whether numbers are part of these sequences. In section C, students will identify and continue numeric and algebraic Fibonnaci style sequences, as well as generate their own. Then in section D, learners use nth terms of quadratic sequences to find the first five terms.
