Study Notes

Surface Area and Volume Calculations

To find the surface area of a cylinder, use the formula: Surface Area = 2πr(h + r), where r is the radius and h is the height.
Volume of a cone is calculated using the formula: Volume = (1/3)πr²h, where r is the radius and h is the height.
The volume of a cube is found by V = s³, where s is the side length.

Algebraic Evaluations

To evaluate an expression like (3Y)², apply the exponent first: (3Y)² = 9Y².
Systems of equations can be solved using substitution or elimination methods.

Distance and Slope

To find the distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), use the distance formula: d = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²].
The slope of a line through points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁).

Proportional Relationships

To determine if a relationship is directly proportional, check if the ratio y/x remains constant.
If it is directly proportional, the equation of proportionality can be written as y = kx, where k is a constant.

Application of Geometry

For similarity of triangles, corresponding sides must be in the same ratio.
Right triangles can be analyzed using the Pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c², for legs a and b, and hypotenuse c.

Algebraic Manipulations

Expand expressions by applying the distributive property, e.g., (3a)³ = 27a³.
Evaluate differences using scientific notation: Subtract the coefficients while keeping the same base.

Financial Calculations

To find a sale price, subtract the discount amount from the original price. For example, for a $30 item at 30% off: $30 - ($30 * 0.30).
Mark-up is calculated as the original cost multiplied by markup percentage; total cost with tax includes the final sale price plus a percentage of taxes.

Scientific Notation

To express numbers in scientific notation, format them as a × 10^n, where a is between 1 and 10, and n is an integer.

Coordinate Geometry

When applying transformations, such as rotation and dilation, calculate new coordinates based on specified transformations (e.g., rotate points and then scale).

Summary of Key Mathematical Concepts

Familiarity with formulas for area, volume, distance, and slope is crucial in solving geometry and algebra problems.
Understanding how to manipulate and evaluate expressions, along with recognizing proportional relationships, is foundational in advanced mathematics.
