Mensuration

Area of a rectangle = Length x Breadth


Area of a parallelogram = Length x Vertical height

Area of a trapezium = ½ x (base 1 + base 2) x h


Volume of right circular cylinder = Pi r^2 h
Surface area of right circular cylinder = 2Pir^2 + 2Pirh

Volume of right circular cone = 1/3 x Pir^2 x h

Volume of sphere = 4/3 Pir^3

Volume of pyramids = 1/3 x base area x h


Note : Base area will be square in square based pyramids
and a triangle in triangle based pyramids. If they
somehow decided to mess you up and give you a
pentagonal squared base, then base area is the area of that
pentagon.

Surface area of a squared based pyramid =


Base area (which is a square) + 4 x Area of triangle

Surface area of a triangle based pyramid =


Base Area (which is a triangle) + ½ (p x h)
(p = perimeter of the triangle, h = slanted height)
Visual representation
of finding S.A of a
triangle based
pyramid

Volume of prism = Base area(blue) x length(red)

Surface area of a triangle based prism =


(a + b + c) l + (Br x h)
Sectors

Minor Sector = Red, Major sector = Purple


Minor Arc = Orange, Major Arc = Brown

Area of sector = x/360 x Pi r^2


Length of arc = x/360 x 2 Pi r
