Shape Formulas for Area (A) and Circumference (C)
A= bh = x base x height
Triangle
A = lw = length x width
Rectangle
A= (b1 + b2)h = x sum of bases x height
Trapezoid
A = bh = base x height
Parallelogram
Circle
Figure Formulas for Volume (V) and Surface Area (SA)
Rectangular Prism V = lwh = length x width x height
SA = 2lw + 2hw + 2lh
= 2(length x width) + 2(height x width) + 2(length x height)
V = Bh = area of base x height
SA = sum of the areas of the faces
General Prisms
V = Bh = area of base x height
SA = 2B + Ch = (2 x area of base) + (circumference x height)

Equations of a Line Coordinate Geometry Formulas
Standard Form: Let (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) be two points in the
plane.
Ax + By = C
where A and B are not both zero
Slope-Intercept Form:
y = mx + b or y = b + mx
where m = slope and b = y-intercept
Point-Slope Formula:
Distance Traveled Polygon Angle Formulas
d = rt Sum of degree measures of the interior angles
distance = rate x time of a polygon:
Simple Interest 180 (n - 2)
I = prt
Degree measure of an interior angle of a regular
interest = principal x interest rate x time polygon:
where n is the number of sides of the polygon
