Study Notes

Quadratics

  • The discriminant formula is b² - 4ac.
  • Discriminant is zero (b² - 4ac = 0) when roots are equal.
  • For imaginary roots, the discriminant is less than zero (b² - 4ac < 0).
  • Positive perfect square discriminant indicates rational roots.
  • Positive non-perfect square discriminant indicates irrational roots.
  • Sum of roots of a quadratic: -b/a.
  • Product of roots of a quadratic: c/a.
  • Solutions for quadratic inequalities involve identifying roots and testing intervals.

Absolute Value

  • For |x| < k, the range is -k < x < k; for |x| ≤ k, it's -k ≤ x ≤ k.
  • For |x| > k, x is either less than -k or greater than k; for |x| ≥ k, include equalities.
  • Solving |x| = k gives x = k or x = -k; verify solutions.

Radicals

  • To solve radical equations, isolate the radical, square both sides, then solve.

Functions

  • Inverse variation: p₁q₁ = p₂q₂.
  • Direct variation: p₁/q₁ = p₂/q₂.
  • Inverse variation equation: xy = k (k is a constant).
  • Direct variation equation: x/y = k or y/x = k.
  • Function evaluation f(g(x)) involves substituting g(x) into f.

Trigonometry

  • Convert degrees to radians by multiplying by π/180; convert radians to degrees by multiplying by 180/π.
  • Period formula: 2π/b; frequency formula: 2π/p.
  • Coordinates on a circle: x = r cos θ; y = r sin θ.
  • Sine ratio: sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse.
  • Cosine ratio: cos θ = adjacent/hypotenuse.
  • Tangent ratio: tan θ = opposite/adjacent.
  • Reciprocal functions: sec θ = 1/cos θ, csc θ = 1/sin θ, cot θ = 1/tan θ.
  • Cofunctions are pairs of functions whose angles sum to 90°.
  • The acronym ASTC indicates which trig functions are positive in which quadrants.

Exponents

  • Interest compounded n times per year: A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt).
  • Interest compounded continuously: A = P * e^(rt).
  • Distance formula for points: d = √((x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²).
  • Exponential decay: y = a(1 - r)ⁿ; exponential growth: y = a(1 + r)ⁿ.
  • For multiplication: (x^a)(x^b) = x^(a+b); for division: (x^a)/(x^b) = x^(a-b).
  • When raising a power to another power: (x^a)^b = x^(ab).
  • Negative exponents: x^(-n) = 1/(x^n).
  • Rational exponents: x^(a/b) = b√(x^a).

Statistics

  • Variance is represented as (σx)².

Logarithms

  • Logarithm product rule: log(XY) = log X + log Y.
  • Quotient rule: log(X/Y) = log X - log Y.
  • Power rule: log(X^n) = n log X.
  • Convert log(base b)x = y to exponential form: b^y = x.
  • Convert b^y = x to log form: log(base b)x = y.

Additional Concepts

  • Center-radius form of a circle: (x-h)² + (y-k)² = r².
  • Axis of symmetry for quadratics: x = -b/(2a).
  • Finding inverses involves switching x and y and solving for y.
  • Transformations: f(x + c) shifts horizontally, f(x) + c shifts vertically.

Complex Numbers

  • Powers of i: i⁰ = 1, i¹ = i, i² = -1, i³ = -i, i⁴ = 1.
  • Conjugate of a + bi is a - bi.
  • Rationalization involving i in the denominator uses its conjugate.

Functions and Intervals

  • Domain of rational functions determined by setting the denominator not equal to zero.
  • Domain of square root functions requires the radicand to be non-negative.
  • Logarithmic functions' domain found by ensuring the argument is positive.
