Answer 1

Answer:

The word fractals describe geometrical shapes that are self-similar with continuous repetition.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fractal is a word invented by Mandelbrot to illustrate some geometric shape with self similar repeating dimensions. It can be used to qualify resizing or splitting of a given image into parts (e.g compressing) which consist of smaller copies of itself.

They are infinitely complex with a non-integer dimensions. Examples are the dragon curve and space-filling curve.

Mandelbrot invented the word fractals to describe shapes found in nature that are similar to itself and recursive.
