Formula

Rectangle:
Area = Length X Width
A = lw

Perimeter = 2 X Lengths + 2 X
Widths
P = 2l + 2w
Parallelogram
Area = Base X Height
a = bh

Triangle
Area = 1/2 of the base X the height
a = 1/2 bh
Perimeter = a + b + c
(add the length of the three sides)
Trapezoid

Perimeter = area + b1 + b2 + c
P = a + b1 + b2 + c

Circle Try the Online tool.


The distance around the circle is
a circumference. The distance
across the circle is the diameter
(d). The radius (r) is the distance
from the center to a point on the
circle. (Pi = 3.14) More
aboutcircles.
d = 2r
c = pd = 2 pr
A = pr2
(p=3.14)
Rectangular Solid
Volume = Length X Width X
Height
V = lwh
Surface = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

Prisms
Volume = Base X Height
v=bh
Surface = 2b + Ph (b is the area
of the base P is the perimeter of
the base)
Cylinder
Volume = pr2 x height
V = pr2 h
Surface = 2p radius x height
S = 2prh + 2pr2

Pyramid
V = 1/3 bh
b is the area of the base
Surface Area: Add the area of the
base to the sum of the areas of
all of the triangular faces. The
areas of the triangular faces will
have different formulas for
different shaped bases.
Cones
Volume = 1/3 pr2 x height
V= 1/3 pr2h 
Surface = pr2 + prs
S = pr2 + prs 
=pr2 + pr

Sphere
Volume = 4/3 pr3
V = 4/3 pr3
Surface = 4pr2
S = 4pr2

Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity


Where
Weight in Newtons, N
Mass in kilograms, kg
Acceleration in meters per second per second, ms^(-2). 9.81 at surface of Earth

Mass = volume x density


Where mass in kilograms, kg
Volume in cubic meters, m^3
Density in kilogram per cubic meter, kgm^(-3)
