Study Notes

Inverse Operations

Inverse operations are actions that reverse each other, aiding in solving equations.
Key pairs include: addition and subtraction, multiplication and division.

Properties of Equality

Addition Property of Equality: Adding the same number to both sides maintains equivalence.
Subtraction Property of Equality: Subtracting the same number from both sides maintains equivalence.
Multiplication Property of Equality: Multiplying both sides by the same number maintains equivalence.
Division Property of Equality: Dividing both sides by the same number maintains equivalence.

Absolute Value

Absolute Value Equation: An equation featuring an absolute value expression, indicating distance from zero.
Absolute Value: Represents the distance of a number from 0 on the number line.

Geometric Formulas

Area of a Triangle: A = 0.5 * b * h (where b is base and h is height).
Area of a Trapezoid: A = 0.5 * (b1 + b2) * h.
Perimeter: Total distance around a figure, calculated by adding all side lengths.
Circumference of a Circle: C = 2𝛑r or C = 𝛑d (where r is radius and d is diameter).
Area of a Parallelogram: A = b * h (base times height at a right angle to the base).
Volume of a Prism: V = l * w * h (length times width times height).
Volume of a Pyramid: V = (1/3) * B * h (where B is the base area).
Volume of a Cylinder: V = 𝛑 * r² * h (where r is radius and h is height).
Volume of a Cone: V = (1/3) * 𝛑 * r² * h (where r is radius and h is height).
Surface Area of a Cone: S = 𝛑r² + 𝛑rℓ (includes base and lateral surface area, where ℓ is slant height).

Literal Equations

A literal equation contains two or more variables, used to express relationships between quantities.

Power of a Quotient Property

The power of a quotient is calculated by individually raising the numerator and denominator to the power before dividing them.
