quadratic formula โœ” [-b ยฑ โˆš(bยฒ - 4ac)] / (2a) slope formula โœ” (yโ‚‚- yโ‚) / (xโ‚‚- xโ‚) integers โœ” ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ... rationals โœ” fractions (anything expessable as a ratio of integers) reals โœ” integers, rationals, plus special #s (like โˆš2 or pi) order of opperations โœ” PEMDAS (Parentheses / Exponents / Multiply / Divide / Add / Subtract) Arithmetic Sequences โœ” tโ‚, tโ‚+ d, tโ‚+2d, ...

Factors โœ” ex. factors of 52 are 2, 4, 13, and 26 Multiples โœ” ex. multiples of 20 are 40, 60, 80, 100, ... percentages โœ” part = (percent / 100) x whole average โœ” average = sum of terms / number of terms average speed โœ” average speed = total distance / total time sum โœ” sum = average x (number of terms) mode

โœ” mode = value in the list that appears most often median โœ” median = middle value in the list fundamental counting principle โœ” if an event can happen in N ways, and another, independent event can happen in M ways, then both events together can happen in N x M ways. probability โœ” probability = number of desired outcomes / number of total outcomes adding exponents โœ” x^a ยท x^b = x^(a+b) subtracting exponents โœ” x^a / x^b = x^(a-b) negative exponents โœ” 1 / x^b = x^(-b) multiplying exponents โœ” (x^a)^b = x^(aยทb) x^ โœ” 1 roots โœ” โˆš(xy) = โˆšx ยท โˆšy FOIL โœ” (x+a)(x+b) = x^2 + (b+a)x + ab difference of squares โœ” a^2 -b^2 = (a+b)(a-b) a^2 + 2ab + b^ โœ” (a+b)^ a^2 - 2ab + b^ โœ” (a-b)(a-b) distance formula โœ” โˆš[(xโ‚‚- xโ‚)^2 + (yโ‚‚- yโ‚)^2)] mid-point formula

โœ” volume = lwh right cylinder volume โœ” volume = pi ยท r^2 ยท h prime factors โœ” 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, ... Greatest Common Factor โœ” ex. GCF of 200 and 60 is 20 Least Common Multiple โœ” ex. LCM of 200 and 60 is 600 equation of circle โœ” with midpoint (h,k) ... (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^ trapezoid area โœ” area = [(base1 + base2) / 2] ยท h Direct Variation โœ” y=kx Inverse Variation โœ” y=k/x Slope intercept form โœ” y=mx+b Point-Slope form โœ” y - yโ‚= m(x - xโ‚) standard form โœ” Ax + By=C, where A, B, and C are not decimals or fractions, where A and B are not both zero, and where A is not a negative Dividing by a negative number in an inequality โœ” You must flip the sign Graphing < or > on a coordinate plane โœ” dotted line Graphing โ‰ฅ or โ‰ค on a coordinate plane โœ” solid line Graphing โ‰ฅ or > on a coordinate plane

โœ” shade upwards or to the right Graphing โ‰ค or < on a coordinate plane โœ” shade downwards or to the left circle perimeter โœ” 2 pi r Chord โœ” The distance from one point on the circle to another point on the circle. Sector โœ” The part of a circle that looks like a piece of pie. A sector is bounded by 2 radii and an arc of the circle. arc โœ” Part of a circle connecting two points on the circle. Central Angle โœ” An angle whose vertex is the center of the circle
