What to Study
  • Right triangles
  • Equilateral triangles
  • Isosceles triangles
  • Special right triangles (30-60-90, 45-45-90)
  • Pythagorean theorem (a² + b² = c²)
  • Common Pythagorean triples (3-4-5, 5-12-13, 8-15-17, 7-24-25)
  • Similar triangles and ratios
  • Area of triangles (A = ½bh)
  • Triangle inequality theorem
  • Interior angles sum = 180°
Key Formulas
Area = ½ × base × height
Perimeter = a + b + c
a² + b² = c² (right triangle)
Interior angles sum = 180°
30-60-90: sides = x, x√3, 2x
45-45-90: sides = x, x, x√2
