Specifically, it is supposed to be about a branch of mathematics. I want to do something along the lines of problem solving or pascal's triangle, but I don't know what type of math that is.

If you tell us what school level you are in, that might help us give better suggestions. Is this for seventh grade or for college?

for pascal's triangle, you could either look at combinatorics or probability theory. the two subjects are related, and they both use pascal's triangle.

I would recommend Statistics. It's one of the most widely used forms of Mathematics. You have to learn Statistics for almost any given career requiring a college degree.

I think Permutation and Combination and also Probability are very interesting.
