As a child, I remember working for a couple of weeks on a challenge set by my brother: In a snooker triangle there are 15 balls arranged in 5 rows. How many would there be in 100 rows? 25 years on, this is my response!

I was playing around with images to represent geometric series and was pleasantly surprised by the connections between these two.

While exploring the patterns in the exact values of sine and cosine for 30, 45 and 60 degrees, I discovered other right-angled triangles where the lengths and angles are known.
