Try It!

The construction for the Sierpinski gasket can be done with any shaped triangle, not just an equilateral triangle. Once the GeoGebra app loads (be patient!), you can click on one of the vertices and drag with the mouse to move it to another location (there may be a slight delay as the calculations are redone). Change the value of n to show up to 6 iterations.

Created with GeoGebra.
