Geometry formulas
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| geometric mean | √axb |
| theorem one | altitude from the right angle splits the triangle into 2 similar triangles, both similar to the original triangle |
| theorem two word def. | altitude is the geometric mean between the two peices of hypotenuse |
| theorem two formula | peice of hyp/altitude=altitude/other peice of hypotenuse |
| theorem three word def. | the leg of the triangle is the geometric mean between the whole hypotenuse and the adjacent peice |
| theorem three formula | full hypotenuse/leg=leg/adjacent peice |
| 60,30 tri. hypotenuse | 2x |
| 60,30 tri. long leg | x√3 |
| 60,30 tri. short leg | x |
| 45,45 tri. hypotenuse | x√2 |
| 45,45 tri. legs | x & x |
| SIN | opposite, hypotenuse |
| COS | adjacent, hypotenuse |
| TAN | opposite, adjacent |
