The conjecture to describe the pattern in each sequence and the next item in sequence.
Answer to Problem 61SPR
There is one triangle more in every term than the previous term and the direction of the
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The given sequence is:
Calculation:
Initially, there are two triangles that are facing towards the right direction.
Then, there are 3 triangles facing upwards.
Finally, there are 4 triangles facing in right direction.
The conjecture is:
There is one triangle more in every term than the previous term and the direction of the triangles is changing from being right to upwards with every term.
Therefore, the next term will have 5 triangles facing upwards.
