The key formulas from the sheet. Download the full PDF above for the complete list with diagrams.

Area & Perimeter

✦Area of rectangle = length × width

✦Area of triangle = ½ × base × height

✦Area of parallelogram = base × height

✦Area of trapezium = ½(a + b) × h

✦Area of circle = πr²

✦Circumference = 2πr = πd

II.

Volume & Surface Area

✦Volume of cuboid = l × w × h

✦Volume of prism = area of cross-section × length

✦Volume of cylinder = πr²h

✦Volume of sphere = ⁴⁄₃πr³

✦Volume of cone = ⅓πr²h

✦Surface area of sphere = 4πr²

III.

Algebra

✦Quadratic formula: x = (−b ± √(b²−4ac)) / 2a

✦Difference of two squares: a² − b² = (a+b)(a−b)

✦Gradient = (y₂ − y₁) / (x₂ − x₁)

✦Equation of a line: y = mx + c

✦nth term (arithmetic): a + (n−1)d

IV.

Trigonometry & Pythagoras

✦Pythagoras: a² + b² = c²

✦sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

✦cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse

✦tan θ = opposite / adjacent

✦Sine rule: a/sin A = b/sin B = c/sin C

✦Cosine rule: a² = b² + c² − 2bc cos A

✦Area of triangle = ½ab sin C

Probability & Statistics

✦Probability = favourable outcomes / total outcomes

✦P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) − P(A and B)

✦P(not A) = 1 − P(A)

✦Mean = sum of values / number of values

✦Compound interest: A = P(1 + r/100)ⁿ

VI.

Compound Measures

✦Speed = distance / time

✦Density = mass / volume

✦Pressure = force / area

How to use this formula sheet

Print it out and stick it on your bedroom wall or inside your revision folder.

Test yourself — cover the right side and try to recall each formula from memory.

In the exam, some formulas are given on the front page (area of trapezium, volume of prism, etc.) but many are not. Learn the ones that are NOT given.

Use our practice questions to apply each formula in exam-style contexts.
