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.
