Distance Formula D= ( ∆x ) 2 + ( ∆y ) 2
Perimeter Formula for a polygon = add up all side lengths
Area Formulas
Arectangle = b ⋅ h = l ⋅ w Atriangle = 12 ⋅b ⋅ h Acircle = π ⋅ r 2
Aparallelogram = b ⋅ h Atrapezoid = 12 ⋅ h ⋅ ( b1 + b2 )
Volume Formulas Vbox = lwh V prism / cylinder = B ⋅ h
4 1
Vsphere = π r 3 V pyramid / cone = ⋅ B ⋅ h
3 3
Surface Area Formulas (B stands for area of the Base)
S . A. polyhedron = add up areas of all faces
S . A.cylinder = 2 ⋅ B + C ⋅ h , where C=circumference
S . A.cone = B + π ⋅ r ⋅ s , where s is slant height
S . A.sphere = 4π r 2
Circle Formulas
Diameter: d = 2⋅r Pi: π = C d ≈ 3.14159
Circumference: C = 2 ⋅ π ⋅ r or C = π ⋅ d Area of circle: A = π ⋅r2
Length of arc: l = fraction of circle ⋅ C Area of sector:
S = fraction of circle ⋅ A
The Pythagorean Theorem c2 = a 2 + b2
