A few lessons ago, you built squares with toothpicks. You found the arithmetic sequence that represented how many toothpicks were added each time. Now look at these squares from a different perspective. Perhaps you can find a geometric sequence also.
1. In this sequence of images, more and more squares are added to create larger squares. What geometric sequence describes the total number of small squares in each successive picture?
2.What is the rule for the geometric sequence of total small squares in each large square?
3.The total number of toothpicks also forms a geometric sequence: 4,
