VOLUME AND SURFACE AREA:
Volume of pyramids:
v= 1/3 x base area x height of pyramid
for base area, see the base of the pyramid
Total surface Area of pyramids:
T.S.A= Area of base + ½ base xh for all lateral faces.
Volume of cone:
V=1/3 πr2h
Curved surface area=πrl
Total surface area= πrl + πr² or
T.s.a = πr(l+r) use this formula ,it has less calculation
Volume of the sphere:
V= 4/3 πr³
Surface area or total surface area of sphere:
S.A = 4πr²

PERCENTAGE:
Profit= s.p –c.p,
Loss= c.p – s.p
Discount= m.p – sale price,
P%=P/C.P X 100%
L%= L/C.P X 100%
D%= D/M.P X100
(100 + p%) x c.p= S.p
(100 – L%) x c.p = s.p
Must remember the above two formulas especially.
GST(Goods and services tax) is also called VAT(value added tax)
Percentage change(increase)= final – initial/initial x 100
Percent(change) decrease= initial – final /initial x 10
Markup= PRT/100
Partnership questions :
1.Amount of partners x no of months or years.
2. Find ratio of partners investment.
3. Profit x ratio of partner / total ratio
Inheritance questions:
2x no of sons
Sons + daughters
Inheritance amount ÷ total no of sons and daughters.
Answer you get is daughter 's share
Answer x2= sons share
Insurance questions:
Premium x insurance amount for year.
Depreciation (100%- depreciation %)ñ
Sets
Power set or subset
2 power n
Where n is the number of elements in the set.
AUB ( all elements of A and B)
AnB ( common elements of A and B)
A - B ( after cancelling common elements of A and B, leftover elements of A)
B – A ( after cancelling common elements of A and B, leftover elements of B)
Venn diagrams
AREA FORMULAS;
A of triangle= ½ x base x height
A of trapezium= ½ x (a+b)xh
A of parallelogram= L X H
A of square or rhombus= LXL
A of rectangle= LX B
A of a circle= πr2 Circumferrence = 2πr
A of semi circle
=πr2/2,
Circumferrence=πr Perimeter=πr+D
A of quarter circle=πr2/4,
Circumference=πr/2 Perimeter=πr/2+ D
Perimeter of any shape add all sides
Algebraic expression/Algebraic fractions/quadratic equation :
Common
Middle term break
Identities
(a+ b)²= a² +2ab + b²
(a – b)²= a² -2ab + b²
a²- b² = (a- b) ( a+b)
