Math SL Investigation Type 2 Stellar Numbers This is an investigation about stellar numbers‚ it involves geometric shapes which form special number patterns. The simplest of these is that of the square numbers (1‚ 4‚ 9‚ 16‚ 25 etc…) The diagram below shows the stellar triangular numbers until the 6th triangle. The next three numbers after T5 would be: 21‚ 28‚ and 36. A general statement for nth triangular numbers in terms of n is: The 6-stellar star‚ where there are 6 vertices‚ has
