Geometry and Trigonometry

Shapes, Angles, and Measurement

Geometry and trigonometry questions test your understanding of shapes, angles, area, perimeter, and right triangle relationships.

Essential Topics

  • Triangles and Circles: Calculate areas, perimeters, and properties.
  • Pythagorean Theorem: \( a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \) for right triangles.
  • Special Right Triangles: Know the 30-60-90 and 45-45-90 relationships.
  • Trigonometric Ratios: Sine, cosine, tangent for finding side lengths or angles.

Real-World Connections

Architecture, sports, and engineering all rely on geometry and trigonometry skills.

Pro Tips

  • Draw diagrams to visualize problems.
  • Memorize key formulas and ratios.

Examples

  • Find the area of a triangle with base 8 and height 5.

  • In a right triangle, if one leg is 6 and the hypotenuse is 10, find the other leg.

In a Nutshell

Solve problems involving shapes, angles, and trigonometric relationships.
