Geometry

A point has no size, only location, and is represented by a set of coordinates.
A line extends infinitely in two directions and can be named using two points or a point and a slope.
A plane is a flat surface that extends infinitely and can be named using three points or a point and a normal vector.
Angles can be classified into five types: acute (< 90°), obtuse (> 90°), right (90°), straight (180°), and reflex (> 180°).
Congruent angles have the same measure, supplementary angles add up to 180°, and complementary angles add up to 90°.
Angles can be measured in degrees, with 360° in a full circle.
Quadrilaterals include rectangles, squares, rhombuses, and trapezoids, each with unique properties.
Triangles can be congruent, similar, or right-angled, with properties such as congruent sides and angles.
Circles have a center, radius, diameter, and circumference, with the circumference being 2π times the radius.

Trigonometry

SOHCAHTOA is a mnemonic for remembering the definitions of sine, cosine, and tangent.
Sine (sin) is the ratio of the opposite side to the hypotenuse.
Cosine (cos) is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse.
Tangent (tan) is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side.
Pythagoras Theorem states that the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs of a right-angled triangle is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.
Trigonometry can be used to solve multistep problems involving 2D and 3D shapes.

Statistics

Data can be classified into four types: qualitative (descriptive), quantitative (numerical), discrete (countable), and continuous (measurable).
Data visualization techniques include histograms, bar charts, pie charts, and scatter plots, each suitable for different types of data.
The mean is the average value of a dataset, calculated by summing the values and dividing by the number of data points.
The median is the middle value of a dataset when in order, and the mode is the most frequently occurring value in a dataset.

Algebra

Variables are symbols used to represent unknown values or quantities.
Expressions are combinations of variables, numbers, and operations, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Linear equations can be solved using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Quadratic equations can be solved using factoring or the quadratic formula.
Linear and quadratic equations can be graphed on a coordinate plane to visualize their solutions.
