Key Theorems

TopicRule
Angle sum of a triangleSum of all three angles = 180°
Exterior angle theoremExterior angle = sum of the two opposite interior angles
Pythagoras theoremHypotenuse² = Base² + Height² (right triangle only)
Angle sum of a quadrilateralSum of all four angles = 360°
Angle in a semicircleAlways 90°
Tangent-radius propertyA tangent is always perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact
💡 Pythagorean triples to memorise: 3-4-5 | 5-12-13 | 8-15-17 | 7-24-25 | 9-40-41 (and their multiples)
💡 Example: Right triangle with base 6, height 8 → Hypotenuse² = 36+64 = 100 → Hypotenuse = 10
