Question:

Let \(K_{0} \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}\) be a line of length 1 . We get \(K_{1}\) by replacing the middle third of \(K_{0}\) by the sides of an equilateral triangle. By iterating this procedure we get the curves \(K_{0}, K_{1}, K_{2}, \ldots\) (see Fig. 1.5 ) which defines in the limit Koch's snowflake \(K_{\infty}\). Find the length of \(K_{n}\) and \(K_{\infty}\).
