Integers -
Positive and Negative Whole Numbers; Includes 0
Prime Number -
A whole number greater than 1 that only has two factors (itself and 1)
Composite Number -
A whole number greater than 1 that has more than two different factors
Rational Numbers -
All integers, decimals and fractions; any terminating or repeating decimal number
Irrational Numbers -
Cannot be written as fractions or decimals because the number of decimal places
is infinite and there is no recurring pattern of digits within the number (e.g. pi)
Real Numbers -
Set of all rational and irrational numbers
Order of Operations -
PEMDAS
M/D and A/S are worked left to right in order
Commutative Property -
The order of two numbers may be switched around and the answer is the same
*THINK COMMUTE = move
Associative Property -
Grouping numbers together does not change the value *THINK ASSOCIATE =
group
Distributive Property -
a(b + c) = ab + ac
Additive Identity Property -
a + 0 = a
Additive Inverse Property -
Any (+) number added to its opposite (-) is equal to zero
Multiplicative Identity Property -
1 is the multiplicative identity such that a x 1=a
Multiplicative Inverse Property -
"Reciprocal"
Law of Exponents -
pf3
pf4
pf5

✔️1) Any number raised to the power of 1 is equal to itself

  1. The number 1 raised to any power is equal to 1
  2. Any number raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1
  3. Add exponents to multiply powers of the same base number
  4. Subtract exponents to divide powers of the same number
  5. Multiply exponents to raise a power to a power
  6. If multiplied or divided numbers inside parentheses are raised to a power it is the same as each individual term raised to that power Factors - ✔️Numbers that are multiplied together to obtain a product Common Factor - ✔️Number that divides exactly into two or more other numbers Greatest Common Factor (GCF) - ✔️The largest number that is a factor of two or more numbers Least Common Multiple (LCM) - ✔️The smallest number that is a multiple of two or more numbers Dividing Fractions - ✔️Flip the numerator and denominator of the second fraction and then multiply Solving Percentage Problems - ✔️P=W x % or %=P/W or W=P/% Bisector - ✔️A line/line segment that divides another line segment into two equal lengths Intersecting Lines - ✔️Lines that have exactly one point in common Transversal Line - ✔️A line that intersects at least two other lines that may or may not be parallel Vertex - ✔️The point where two segments or rays meet to form an angle Angles - ✔️Acute: less than 90 degrees Right: exactly 90 degrees Obtuse: between 90 and 180 Straight: exactly 180 degrees (line) Reflex: between 180 and 360 Full: exactly 360 Complementary -

Square: 4 equal sides and 4 congruent (right) angles Triangles - ✔️Acute: 3 angles are all less than 90 degrees Right: one angle equals 90 degrees (Pythagorean Theorem) Obtuse: one angle is greater than 90 degrees Equilateral: 3 congruent sides/angles each at 60 degrees Isosceles: two congruent sides and two congruent angles opposite the two congruent sides Scalene: no congruent sides with 3 angles of different measures; angle with largest measure is opposite the longest side and angle with the smallest measure is opposite the shortest side Triangle Inequality Theorem - ✔️The sum of the measures of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the measure of the third side Similar Triangles - ✔️Triangles whose corresponding angles are congruent to one another; proportional Side-Side-Side - ✔️If all three sides of one triangle are equal to all three sides of another triangle, they are congruent Side-Angle-Side - ✔️If two sides and the adjoining angle in one triangle are equal to two sides and the adjoining angle of another triangle, they are congruent Pythagorean Theorem - ✔️a^2 (side) + b^2 (side) = c^2 (hypotenuse) Law of Sines - ✔️sinA/a = sinB/b = sinC/c Law of Cosines - ✔️c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab(cosC) Area Formulas - ✔️Rectangle: A=wl Square: A=s^ Triangle: A=1/2bh Parallelogram: A=bh Trapezoid: A=1/2 (b1 + b2)h Circle: A=pi(r^2) Volume Formulas - ✔️Pyramid: V=1/3Bh Prism: V=Bh Cube: V=s^ Sphere: V=4/3pi(r)^
