Study Notes
Geometry EOC Prep
Circles and Circle Theorems
-
Circle properties:
- Center: midpoint of a diameter
- Radius: distance from center to any point on the circle
- Diameter: longest possible chord, passes through center
-
Circle theorems:
- Inscribed angle theorem: angle at the center of a circle is twice the inscribed angle
- Central angle theorem: angle at the center of a circle is equal to the sum of the inscribed angles
- Intercepted arc theorem: the angle at the center of a circle is equal to the sum of the intercepted arcs
Right Triangles and Trigonometry
-
Right triangle properties:
- Hypotenuse: longest side, opposite the right angle
- Legs: sides that meet at the right angle
-
Trigonometric ratios:
- Sine (sin): opposite side / hypotenuse
- Cosine (cos): adjacent side / hypotenuse
- Tangent (tan): opposite side / adjacent side
- Pythagorean identity: sin^2(A) + cos^2(A) = 1
Properties of Congruent and Similar Figures
-
Congruent figures:
- Same shape and size
- Corresponding angles and sides are equal
-
Similar figures:
- Same shape, different size
- Corresponding angles are equal, corresponding sides are proportional
-
Criteria for congruence and similarity:
- SAS (side-angle-side), ASA (angle-side-angle), SSS (side-side-side) for congruence
- AA (angle-angle) for similarity
Angles and Measurement
-
Angle properties:
- Complementary angles: add up to 90°
- Supplementary angles: add up to 180°
- Vertical angles: formed by two intersecting lines
-
Angle measurement:
- Degrees: 360° in a circle, 180° in a straight angle
- Radians: 2π in a circle, π in a straight angle
Points, Lines, and Planes
- Point: location in space, represented by an ordered pair (x, y)
- Line: set of points extending infinitely in two directions
- Plane: set of points extending infinitely in all directions
-
Intersections:
- Two lines intersect at a point
- A line and a plane intersect at a line
- Two planes intersect at a line
Volume and Surface Area of 3D Shapes
-
Volume:
- Rectangular prism: V = lwh
- Cylinder: V = πr^2h
- Cone: V = (1/3)πr^2h
-
Surface area:
- Rectangular prism: SA = 2(lw + lh + wh)
- Cylinder: SA = 2πr(h + r)
- Cone: SA = πr(r + l)
Weighted Average
- Weighted average formula: (Σ(xi * wi)) / Σwi
- xi: individual data points
- wi: weights assigned to each data point
Transformations, Rotations, and Dilatations
-
Transformations:
- Translation: movement in a straight line
- Reflection: flip over a line
- Rotation: turn around a fixed point
-
Rotations:
- Center of rotation: fixed point around which the rotation occurs
- Angle of rotation: measure of the rotation
-
Dilatations:
- Scale factor: multiplier applied to each dimension
- Center of dilation: fixed point around which the dilation occurs
