Koch Snowflake Fractal - Area and Perimeter Calculation

Explore the fascinating mathematical properties of the Koch Snowflake fractal in this 29-minute video produced by Dr. Tom Crawford at the University of Oxford for Maths Week London. Learn how to construct the Koch Snowflake and delve into the surprising calculations of its perimeter and area. Discover why the perimeter is infinite while the area remains constant. The video is divided into two parts: the first section on perimeter calculation is suitable for students aged 14-16, while the area calculation segment is designed for students 16 and older. Follow along with step-by-step instructions to create your own Koch Snowflake fractal at home. The video covers fractals and the Koch Snowflake, perimeter calculation, and area calculation, providing a comprehensive exploration of this intriguing mathematical concept.
