Study Notes

Geometric Formulas

  • Circumference of a circle: C = πd
  • Area of a circle: A = πr²
  • Hypotenuse: Longest side of a right triangle
  • Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²
  • Perimeter of a square: P = 4s
  • Perimeter of a rectangle: P = 2l + 2w
  • Perimeter of a triangle: P = a + b + c
  • Area of a square: A = s²
  • Area of a rectangle: A = lw
  • Area of a parallelogram: A = bw
  • Area of a triangle: A = ½bh
  • Area of a trapezoid: A = ½h(b₁ + b₂)

Surface Area Formulas

  • Surface area of a rectangular/right prism: SA = ph + 2B
  • Surface area of a cylinder: SA = 2πrh + 2πr²
  • Surface area of a pyramid: SA = ½ps + B
  • Surface area of a cone: SA = πrs + πr²
  • Surface area of a sphere: SA = 4πr²

Volume Formulas

  • Volume of a rectangular/right prism: V = Bh
  • Volume of a cylinder: V = πr²h
  • Volume of a pyramid: V = ⅓Bh
  • Volume of a cone: V = ⅓πr²h
  • Volume of a sphere: V = ⅔πr³

Financial and Statistical Concepts

  • Simple interest formula: I = Prt
  • Distance formula: d = rt (where r = rate, t = time)
  • Total cost calculation: Total Cost = (number of units) x (price per unit)
  • Mean (average): Total of values divided by the number of values
  • Median: Middle value in a sorted data set or average of two middle values
  • Mode: Most frequently occurring number in a data set
  • Range: Difference between the largest and smallest numbers

Calculating Statistical Values

  • Calculating Mean: Sum all numbers and divide by count
  • Calculating Mode: List numbers in order and identify the most frequent
  • Calculating Median: Sort numbers, find middle value, and average two middle values if applicable
  • Calculating Range: Subtract smallest number from largest

Specific Examples

  • Range of the numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16 is 14
  • Mode of the numbers 7, 12, 1, 5, 7, 8 is 7
  • Median of the numbers 7, 12, 1, 5, 7, 8 is 7.5
  • Mean of the numbers 5, 8, 17, 20, 0 is 10

Linear Equations

  • Slope of a line: Change in y / Change in x
  • Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b (m is slope, b is y-intercept)
  • Point-slope form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
  • Standard form of an equation: y = ax² + bx + c
  • Quadratic formula utilized for solving quadratic equations (not provided in the initial text)
