Rectangular Prism: V = lwh Triangular Prism: V = Bh
Cylinder: V = πr 2h Cone: V = πr 2h Pyramid: V = Bh
Surface Area is the sum of the areas of its surfaces. (wrapping a box) Formulas:
Rectangular Prism: SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh Triangular Prism: SA = hp + 2B
Cylinder: SA = 2πrh + 2πr 2 Cone: SA = πrl + πr 2 Pyramid: SA = ½l p + B

The student will
Apply transformations to plane figures; and Identify applications of transformations
PRACTICE HINTS & NOTES
A transformation is a change in the position, shape, or size of a figure. The original figure you start with is called a pre-image.
The figure you end with is called the image.
There are 4 types of transformations:
Rotations are transformations that turn a figure about a fixed point called the center of rotation. The angle of rotation is the number of degrees the figure rotates. Reflections are transformations that flip a figure over a line. This line is called the line of reflection.
Translations are transformations that move each point of a figure the same distance in the same direction.
Dilations are transformations that create similar figures of larger or smaller sizes. The ratio of the pre-image and the image is called the scale factor. A dilation with a scale factor greater than 1 is called an enlargement.

The student will solve practical area and perimeter problems involving composite plane figures.
PRACTICE HINTS & NOTES
Perimeter of a polygon is the distance around the figure.
The area of any composite figure is based upon knowing how to find the area of the composite parts such as triangles and rectangles.
An estimate of the area of a composite figure can be made by subdividing the polygon into triangles, rectangles, squares, trapezoids and semicircles, estimating their areas, and adding the areas together. Remember to use your formula sheet if you don’t remember the area and perimeter formulas!
What is the perimeter of this figure?

HINTS & NOTES
Two events are either dependent or independent.
If the outcome of one event does not influence the occurrence of the other event, they are called independent. If the outcome of one event does influence the occurrence of the other event, they are called dependent.
With dependent events, your denominator will decrease with each occurrence. You will multiply the individual probabilities whether it is independent or dependent :

Pictures Tables Graphs Rules
Remember when you are graphing ordered pairs, you move left or right on the x-axis first, then up or down on the y-axis. Test taking strategies:
If you have to match a table to an equation, substitute the x and y values until you make a match. If you have to match a table to a graph, be sure to check all ordered pairs you are given.
If you have to match an equation to a graph, create a table of at least 3 x-values, substitute them in to get the y-values, then match your ordered pairs to the correct graph. If you have to match a graph to an equation, make a list of the ordered pairs from each graph then substitute them into the equation until you find a match.
