    Quadrilaterals

    • A rectangle has four right angles and opposite sides of equal length.
    • A rhombus has opposite sides of equal length, but not all angles are right angles.
    • A trapezium is a quadrilateral with two pairs of opposite sides, where one pair is parallel.
    • A parallelogram has opposite sides of equal length, and opposite angles that are equal.

    Angles in Polygons

    • The sum of the interior angles of a pentagon is 540°.
    • In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary (add up to 180°).

    Calculating Diagonals and Diagonals

    • The length of the diagonal of a rectangle can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem (c² = a² + b²).
    • The area of a rhombus can be calculated using the formula: Area = (diagonal₁ × diagonal₂)/2.

    Triangles

    • In an isosceles triangle, the two equal sides are called legs, and the third side is called the base.
    • The height of an isosceles triangle can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem.
    • The area of a triangle can be calculated using the formula: Area = (base × height)/2.

    Trapeziums

    • The area of a trapezium can be calculated using the formula: Area = (sum of parallel sides × height)/2.

    Hexagons

    • The area of a regular hexagon can be calculated using the formula: Area = (3√3 × side²)/2.
    • The perimeter of a regular hexagon is equal to 6 times the side length.

    Octagons

    • Each interior angle of a regular octagon measures 135°.

    Kites

    • The area of a kite can be calculated using the formula: Area = (diagonal₁ × diagonal₂)/2.

    Circles

    • The circumference of a circle can be calculated using the formula: Circumference = 2 × π × radius.
    • The area of a circle can be calculated using the formula: Area = π × radius².
