Geometry
Before we move further, let's look at what geometry is all about
Geometry Definition
Geometry is the study of different types of shapes, figures and sizes in
Maths or in real life. The study of different types of shapes has to do
with the area, perimeter, volume, surface area, etc of the shapes.
Under geometry, we have essential and commonly used mathematical
formulas. Below are the list of them.
Formulas For Area
- Rectangle ==> length ร width
- Triangle ==> 1/2(base ร height)
- Circle ==> ๐r^2, where r is the radius.
- Trapezoid ==> 1/2(a + b)รheight, where a and b are the bases.
Formulas For Perimeter
- Rectangle ==> 2ร(length + width)
- Square ==> 4l , where l is the length
- Triangle ==> (a + b + c), where (a, b, c) are the three sides
- Circumference of a Circle ==> 2๐r
Formulas For Volume
- Cube ==> l^3, where l is the side length.
- Rectangular Prism ==> length ร width ร height
- Sphere ==> 4/3๐r^3
- Cone ==> 1/3๐r^2รh
Formulas For Surface Area
- Cube ==> 6s^2
- Cylinder ==> 2๐r(r+h)
- Sphere ==> 4๐r^2
Pythagorean Theorem
-
For a right triangle ==> a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where c is the hypotenuse.
