How does the pattern grow? Explain how you know.
What is the difference in number of squares between Figure 1 and Figure 2? Between Figure 2 and Figure 3?
The pattern grows each time by two tiles, one on each side of the figure.
How many tiles will there be in Figure 100? Explain how you know.
Try thinking of the pattern not as an 'L' shape, but a square with some part removed. What size would the square for Figure 100 be?
