    Study Notes

    2D Shapes

    • Area of a square: s², where s is the side length
    • Perimeter of a square: 4 * s
    • Area of a rectangle: w * h, where w is the width and h is the height
    • Perimeter of a rectangle: 2 * w + 2 * h
    • Area of a triangle: 1/2 * b * h, where b is the base and h is the height measured perpendicularly to the base
    • Area of a circle: π * r², where r is the radius measured from the center to the edge

    3D Shapes

    • Shapes can be classified into two types: those with the same dimensions from top to bottom, and those that change
    • Examples of shapes with the same dimensions: can, cube, prism
    • Examples of shapes that change: square pyramid, triangular pyramid, sphere

    Volume of 3D Shapes

    • Volume of shapes with the same dimensions: height * area of the base
    • Volume of a cylinder: h * π * r², where h is the height and r is the radius
    • Volume of a sphere: 4/3 * π * r³
    • Volume of a hemisphere: 2/3 * π * r³
    • Volume of a pyramid or cone: h/3 * area of the base

    2D Shapes

    • Area of a square: s², where s is the side length
    • Perimeter of a square: 4 * s
