Concept of Geometry

Geometry is a branch of mathematics that studies shapes, sizes, positions, and properties of spaces and objects. It helps us understand and describe the physical world around us by exploring points, lines, surfaces, and shapes.

Basic Geometry Formulas

1. Lines and Angles:

• Sum of angles in a triangle: 180°
• Sum of angles in a quadrilateral: 360°
• Pythagorean theorem (Right Triangle): a²+b²=c²

2. Perimeter Formulas:

• Square: Perimeter=4×side
• Rectangle: Perimeter=2×(length+width)
• Triangle: Perimeter=a+b+c (sum of all sides)
• Circle (Circumference): Circumference=2πr or πd

3. Area Formulas:

• Square: Area=side²
• Rectangle: Area=length×width
• Triangle: Area=1/2×base×height
• Circle: Area=πr²

4. 3D Shapes (Surface Area and Volume):

Cube:

• Surface Area = 6×side²
• Volume = side³

Rectangular Prism:

• Surface Area = 2×(length×width+width×height+height×length)
• Volume = length×width×height

Sphere:

• Surface Area = 4πr²
• Volume = 4/3πr³

Cylinder:

• Surface Area = 2πr(r+h)
• Volume = πr²h

Cone:

• Surface Area = πr(r+l) (where l is the slant height)
• Volume = 1/3πr²h
