Perimeters

The perimeter of a rectangle – $\displaystyle a$ , $\displaystyle b$ two sides that meet at a vertex
$\displaystyle P$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle 2(a+b)$
The perimeter of a square – $\displaystyle a$ the side
$\displaystyle P$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle 4a$
Pi
$\displaystyle \pi\approx3.14$
The circumference – $\displaystyle d$ the diameter
$\displaystyle C$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle \pi d$
The circumference – $\displaystyle r$ the radius
$\displaystyle C$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle 2\pi r$

Routes: Pythagoras, distance, speed and time

Pythagoras’ theorem – $\displaystyle a$ , $\displaystyle b$ the legs, $\displaystyle c$ the hypotenuse
$\displaystyle c^2$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle a^2+b^2$
The hypotenuse
$\displaystyle c$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle \sqrt{a^2+b^2}$
A leg

$\displaystyle 1\text{ m}^2=100\cdot100\text{ cm}^2=10000\text{ cm}^2$

Tilings

The sum of the angles of a polygon with $\displaystyle n$ sides
$\displaystyle 180^{\circ}\cdot(n-2)$
The angle of a regular polygon with $\displaystyle n$ sides
