Question

Does the pattern of a fractal remains same when it is zoomed in?

• A. Yes. It will retain the same shape.
• B. No. It will be a magnified and a different view.
• C. It depends on the level of zooming.

Answer 1

The correct option is A Yes. It will retain the same shape.

Each side of the polygon be divided into three parts and a triangle in outward direction replaces the middle part on each side of the polygon.


When this process is repeated infinitely many times, a fractal is formed with the shape of a snowflake.Note: Above figure has finite sides but we can visualise it in process of creating infinitely many side in similiar way.

As it has infinite sides, the same shape will appear if we zoom in on the figure.
