Pascal's Triangle

The triangle starts with the number one on top, and this row is considered the zero row. Every row after the "zero" row is labeled numerically starting with one, then two, ect. The process of creating the rows is adding the adjacent two numbers in the row above, and this sum is placed in the row under the two number that were added, in the spot between them.

The Pascals Triangle was invented by Blaise Pascal in 1653. It is a geometric configuration of binomial coefficients in a triangular pattern.

This is Einstein in his latter years. He looks very old and tired. This is probably because he worked his entire life developing theories, including one of the most famous theories of all time E=mc^2! In this picture he is mentally exhausted.

Einstein was one of the greatest scientists of all time. He had many theories that changed science forever. He proved that light actually has mass.

This is Pascal's Triangle. This triangle is used a lot in algebra and probability/combinatorics. It was invented by Blaise Pascal in the seventeenth century. Thank you, Mr. Pascal, for making our lives more complicated! : )
