The '''Sierpinski triangle''' (also known as '''Sierpinski gasket''') is a [[fractal]] [[geometry]] constructed from [[triangle]]s. It was first created by [[Waclaw Sierpinski]] to triangulate the one-dimensional [[Cantor set]] into a two-dimensional fractal geometry. Sierpinski later generalized his technique to create fractal geometries from other [[polygon]]s, including the square (creating the [[Sierpinski carpet]]) and the circle (Sierpinski circle). [[Topology|Topologically]], the Sierpinski triangle is everywhere [[Dense_subset|dense]], so its closure is the full triangle.
