    Mensuration Formulae

    Perimeter and Area of Various Shapes

    Triangle
    • Perimeter: P = a + b + c where a, b, and c are side lengths
    • Area: A = (b \* h) / 2 where b is base and h is height
    • Heron's Formula: A = √(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)) where s is semi-perimeter (s = (a + b + c) / 2)
    Quadrilateral
    • Perimeter: P = a + b + c + d where a, b, c, and d are side lengths
    • Area: A = (d \* h) / 2 where d is diagonal and h is height
    • Trapezium: A = (1/2) \* (sum of parallel sides) \* height
    Circle
    • Circumference: C = 2 \* π \* r where r is radius
    • Area: A = π \* r^2
    • Sector: A = (θ / 360) \* π \* r^2 where θ is angle in degrees
    Polygon
    • Perimeter: P = sum of side lengths
    • Area: A = (n \* s^2) / (4 \* tan(π/n)) where n is number of sides and s is side length

    Volume and Surface Area of 3D Shapes

    Cube
    • Volume: V = s^3 where s is side length
    • Surface Area: SA = 6 \* s^2
    Cylinder
    • Volume: V = π \* r^2 \* h where r is radius and h is height
    • Surface Area: SA = 2 \* π \* r \* (r + h)
    Sphere
    • Volume: V = (4/3) \* π \* r^3 where r is radius
    • Surface Area: SA = 4 \* π \* r^2

    Mensuration Formulae

    Perimeter and Area of Various Shapes

    Triangle

    • The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its side lengths: P = a + b + c
    • The area of a triangle can be calculated using base and height: A = (b \* h) / 2
    • Heron's Formula provides an alternative method for finding the area of a triangle: A = √(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)), where s is the semi-perimeter

    Quadrilateral

    • The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of its side lengths: P = a + b + c + d
    • The area of a quadrilateral can be calculated using diagonal and height: A = (d \* h) / 2
    • For a trapezium, the area can be found using the formula: A = (1/2) \* (sum of parallel sides) \* height

    Circle

    • The circumference of a circle is proportional to its radius: C = 2 \* π \* r
    • The area of a circle can be calculated using its radius: A = π \* r^2
    • The area of a sector can be found using the angle and radius: A = (θ / 360) \* π \* r^2

    Polygon

    • The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of its side lengths: P = sum of side lengths
    • The area of a polygon can be calculated using its number of sides and side length: A = (n \* s^2) / (4 \* tan(π/n))

    Volume and Surface Area of 3D Shapes

    Cube

    • The volume of a cube is proportional to the cube of its side length: V = s^3
    • The surface area of a cube is proportional to the square of its side length: SA = 6 \* s^2

    Cylinder

    • The volume of a cylinder is proportional to the radius squared and height: V = π \* r^2 \* h
    • The surface area of a cylinder is proportional to the radius and height: SA = 2 \* π \* r \* (r + h)

    Sphere

    • The volume of a sphere is proportional to the cube of its radius: V = (4/3) \* π \* r^3
    • The surface area of a sphere is proportional to the square of its radius: SA = 4 \* π \* r^2

    Tense

    Definition and Types

    • Tense refers to the form of a verb that indicates when an action takes place
    • There are 12 basic tenses in English grammar

    Present Tense

    • Describes an action that is happening now
    • Formed using the base form of the verb
    • Examples:
      • I go to school every day (Simple present)
      • I am studying for my exam (Present continuous)
      • I have studied English for three years (Present perfect)
      • I have been studying English for three years (Present perfect continuous)

    Past Tense

    • Describes an action that happened in the past
    • Formed using the past form of the verb
    • Examples:
      • I went to the park yesterday (Simple past)
      • I was studying at 9 pm (Past continuous)
      • I had eaten dinner before I went to the park (Past perfect)
      • I had been studying for three hours before I took a break (Past perfect continuous)

    Future Tense

    • Describes an action that will happen in the future
    • Formed using the future form of the verb
    • Examples:
      • I will go to the party tonight (Simple future)
      • I will be studying at 10 pm (Future continuous)
      • I will have studied English for four years by next year (Future perfect)
      • I will have been studying English for four years by next year (Future perfect continuous)

    Other Tenses

    Conditional Tense

    • Used to describe hypothetical or uncertain situations
    • Examples:
      • If you heat ice, it melts (Zero conditional)
      • If it rains, I will take an umbrella (First conditional)
      • If I won the lottery, I would buy a house (Second conditional)
      • If I had studied harder, I would have passed the exam (Third conditional)

    Subjunctive Mood

    • Used to express doubt, uncertainty, or possibility
    • Examples:
      • It is necessary that he be there
      • I suggest that he take a break
