Bxh
Area of a triangle
- 5(basexheight)
0. 5(bxh)
Area of a trapezium
0.5(a+b)h
Volume of a cuboid
Length x width x height
L x w x h
Area of a prism
Area of cross section x length
Area of cylinder
πr^2 x height
Area of pyramid
1/3 x area of base x height
Circumference of a circle

2πr
Area of a circle
πr^2
Speed equation
Speed = Distance ÷ time
Density equation
Density = mass ÷ volume
Pressure equation
Pressure = force ÷ area
Pythagoras Theorem
a^2 = b^2 + c^2
Sin (x)
Opposite / hypotenuse
Cos(x)
Adjacent / hypotenuse
Tan (x)
Opposite/adjacent
Sine rule
a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC (for side)
SinA/a = sinB/b = sinC/c (for angle)
Cosine rule
a^2 = b^2+c^2- 2bc(cosA)
CosA = (b^2+c^2-a^2) ÷ 2bc
Trig area of triangle
0.5ab x sinC
Quadratic formula
(-b+ or - √(b^2-4ac)) / 2a
