What is Pascal's triangle?

Imagine building a pyramid entirely out of numbers! Start with a single '1' at the very top. The only rule to build the rest? Every number inside is just the two above it added together! It sounds incredibly simple, but this one tiny rule creates one of the most magical shapes in the universe: Pascal's triangle! Join Mira and Finn as they uncover the mind-bending secrets hiding inside this famous number pyramid. You'll find regular counting numbers, secret patterns used for setting up bowling pins, and even a quick way to figure out how many pairs of friends you can make! But the best part? If you color in only the odd numbers, a beautiful, infinite mosaic of tiny triangles magically appears! Even though it's named after the French thinker Blaise Pascal from 1654, brilliant mathematicians and poets in ancient India, Persia, and China discovered it hundreds of years earlier. It can even help you understand games of chance like flipping coins and rolling dice! Get ready to explore an infinite puzzle that never, ever breaks!
