Cool picture. They DO have 6 legs though....
It relates to math because it is symetrical.

Fractals are amazing objects of symetry. They are a grand picture made up of several smaller objects that are symmetrical.

Leibinz started the mathematics of fractals in the 17th century, but thought that only a straight line would work.
In 1872 Karl Weierstrass gave a example of a function whose graph had a non-intuitive property of being continuous at all points but not differentiable at any point.

Fractal

Fractals are images that are very unique. They are like repeated shapes that are put together to make a big shape, but the shapes are are different sizes.
-Jacob Richardson

Fractals are considered to be infinitely complex because they appear similar at all levels of magnification. Some things in nature that are like fractals include clouds, mountain ranges, lightning bolts, coastlines, snow flakes, and some vegetables.

A fractal is too irregular to be easily described in traditional Euclidean geometric language.

-Callie

A fractal is a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is a reduced size copy of the whole. This property is called self-similarity.
