Formula
Perimeter, area and volume
Where a and b are the lengths of the parallel sides
and h is their perpendicular separation:
Area of a trapezium: \( \frac{1}{2}(a + b)h \)
Volume of a prism: area of cross section × length
Circumference of a circle: \( 2\pi r = \pi d \)
Area of a circle: \( \pi r^2 \)
Quadratic formula
The solution of \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \)
where a ≠ 0
\( x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \)
Pythagoras' Theorem and Trigonometry
In any right-angled triangle:
\( a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \)
In any right-angled triangle ABC where a, b and c are the length of the sides and c is the hypotenuse:
\( \sin A = \frac{a}{c}, \cos A = \frac{b}{c}, \tan A = \frac{a}{b} \)
In any triangle ABC where a, b and c are the length of the sides:
