Matthew Wright and his students in St. Olaf College developed magic triangles with square numbers. In their magic triangles, the sum of the k-th row and the (n-k+1)-th row is same for all k. [5] (sequence A356808 in the OEIS) Its one modification uses triangular numbers instead of square numbers. (sequence A355119 in the OEIS) Another magic ...
The final digit of a triangular number is 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, or 8, and thus such numbers never end in 2, 4, 7, or 9. A final 3 must be preceded by a 0 or 5; a final 8 must be preceded by a 2 or 7. In base 10, the digital root of a nonzero triangular number is always 1, 3, 6, or 9. Hence, every triangular number is either divisible by three or has a ...
A magic polygon, also called a perimeter magic polygon, [1] [2] is a polygon with an integers on its sides that all add up to a magic constant. [3] [4] It is where positive integers (from 1 to N) on a k-sided polygon add up to a constant. [1] Magic polygons are a generalization of other magic shapes [5] such as magic triangles. [6]
They’re arranged in groups of two-digit numbers; you add eight to the top two-digit number (75, 34, 68) to get the bottom number (83, 42, 76). Keeping score Math puzzle
The apparent triangles formed from the figures are 13 units wide and 5 units tall, so it appears that the area should be S = 13×5 / 2 = 32.5 units. However, the blue triangle has a ratio of 5:2 (=2.5), while the red triangle has the ratio 8:3 (≈2.667), so the apparent combined hypotenuse in each figure is actually bent. With the bent ...
The number for n = 6 had previously been estimated to be (1.7745 ± 0.0016) × 10 19. [64] [65] [62] Magic tori. Cross-referenced to the above sequence, a new classification enumerates the magic tori that display these magic squares. The number of magic tori of order n from 1 to 5, is: 1, 0, 1, 255, 251449712 (sequence A270876 in the OEIS).
The magic constant or magic sum of a magic square is the sum of numbers in any row, column, or diagonal of the magic square. For example, the magic square shown below has a magic constant of 15. For example, the magic square shown below has a magic constant of 15.
The earliest extant Chinese illustration of 'Pascal's triangle' is from Yang's book Xiángjiě Jiǔzhāng Suànfǎ (詳解九章算法) [1] of 1261 AD, in which Yang acknowledged that his method of finding square roots and cubic roots using "Yang Hui's Triangle" was invented by mathematician Jia Xian [2] who expounded it around 1100 AD, about 500 years before Pascal.
