1

the formula for the area of a circle

r is the radius

<p><em>r is the radius</em></p>
New cards
2

the radius of circle

is half of the dimeter

New cards
3

to simplify a rotation in

rewrite it in fraction form

New cards
4

what does the pythagorean theorem state?

a2+b2=c2, where a and b are the lengths of the legs at a right triangle with a hypotenuse of length c.

New cards
5

the length of a line segment is?

the sum of the lengths of its parts

New cards
6

the formula for the circumference of a circle

c=2 3.14r where r is the length of the radius. the diameter of a circle is twice the length of the radius.

New cards
7

when given the circumference of c, it is:

efficient to calculate the length of the diameter d with the formula c=3.14d

New cards
8

the circumference of a circle is:

equal to 3.14 times the length of the diameter.

New cards
9

the diameter of a circle is:

a segment that passes through the center and has end points on the circle.

New cards
10

the midpoint formula

(xm,ym) = coordinates of the midpoint. (x1, y1,) = coordinates of the first point. (x2, y2) = coordinates of the second point.

<p>(xm,ym) = coordinates of the midpoint. (x1, y1,) = coordinates of the first point. (x2, y2) = coordinates of the second point.</p>
New cards
11

when parallel lines are intersected by another line (called a transversal) the pairs of alternate interior angles are called?

congruent

New cards
12

the measures of the interior angles sum up to?

180

New cards
13

additional notes.

the tangent ratio is only defined for an acute angle of a right triangle. so it may be necessary to first draw the missing side to complete a right

New cards
14

additional notes.

the tangent of an acute angle is a right triangle is equal to the ratio of a the length of the leg opposite the angle to the length of the leg adjacent to the angle.

New cards
15

when parallel lines are cut by transversal, the following pairs of angles are formed:

congruent corresponding angles. congruent alternate interior angles. supplementary consecutive interior angles.

New cards
16

additional notes.

the diagonal of a rectangle divides the rectangle into two congruent right triangles.

New cards
17

additional notes.

use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of a diagonal of a rectangle.

New cards
18

the equation of a circle in standard form:

(h, k) is the center and r is the radius

<p>(h, k) is the center and r is the radius</p>
New cards
19

Sine =

Opposite/Hypotenuse

New cards
20

Cosine

Adjacent/Hypotenuse

New cards
21

Tangent

Opposite/Adjecent

New cards
22

Isosceles Triangle

an isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two sides of equal length.

New cards
23

Equilateral Triangle

an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides have the same length.

New cards
24

Right Angled Triangle

Right triangles are triangles in which one of the interior angles is 90 degrees, a right angle.

New cards
25

Rhombus

parallelogram with opposite equal acute angles

New cards
26

Quadrilateral

  1. a four-sided figure.

New cards
27

Trapezoid

a quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides.

New cards
28

Parellelogram

a parallelogram is a simple quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.

New cards
29

Pentagon

five sides and five angles

New cards
30

The formula for an area of a triangle

1/2**BaseHeight

New cards
31

Area of a Rectangle

Length*Width

New cards
32

Length x Width x Height

Length x Width x Height = Volume of Cuboid

New cards
33

The formula for the volume of a sphere

4/3piradius 3

New cards
34

Area of a trapezoid

1/2**(Base1+base2)Height

New cards
35

if you have coordinates that are Vertical and Horizontal

Horizontal and vertical shifts are independent (ie, do not affect each other), so it is possible to calculate the result of both translations in a single step.

New cards
36

Area of a triangle

= 1/2 x base x height

New cards
37

angles of a triangle add up to?

180

New cards
38

area of a rectangle

A=length*width

New cards
39

Volume of a cylinder

V = πr2h
