Amazing properties of fractals: Koch Snowflake perimeter

Fractals are pretty amazing mathematical objects. Here I go over one of the examples that stands out for me.

Perimeter is function of thickness of line, everyone assumes 0 line thickness! If line thickness is 0, curve does not exist! Draw it with very thick line, it becomes impossible to extend the curve when line thickness is equal to height of triangle in Koch's curve.

@jaleshdikshit perimeter is not a function of the thickness of the line. Also, a curve in mathematics does have "thickness" 0, and it still exists without any problems. It is a one-dimensional object (embeded in higher dimensions, such as a 2d plane in this case).

that is really interesting keep making vids like this

@BlackRaven117 yo dawg we herd u liek triforce so we put a triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo triforce, in yo..ect

@fractalmath in the snow flake on part 3 you have 6 not 3.

Triforce within a triforce... That's some inception shit

[ben1996123]

the area of the koch snowflake is s^2 * √0.48 where s is the original side length.

the patern continues on for ever great

Wow man your vids are awesome!

Im not that much of a maths brain but you make it both much more fun to learn and also much easier to learn.
