Important Algebra & Geometry Formulas
Squares Identities
• (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
• (a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²
• a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)
Cubes Identities
• (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³
• (a - b)³ = a³ - 3a²b + 3ab² - b³
• a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²)
• a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²)
Important Factorization Identities
• (x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab
• (a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca
• a³ + b³ + c³ - 3abc = (a + b + c)(a² + b² + c² - ab - bc - ca)
• If a + b + c = 0, then a³ + b³ + c³ = 3abc
Useful Short Forms
• (a + b)² - (a - b)² = 4ab
• (a + b)² + (a - b)² = 2(a² + b²)
• a² + b² = (a + b)² - 2ab
• (a - b)² = (a + b)² - 4ab
Power Identities
• a■ - b■ = (a² - b²)(a² + b²)
• a■ - b■ = (a - b)(a + b)(a² + b²)
Quadratic-Type Identities
• x² + (a + b)x + ab = (x + a)(x + b)
• x² - (a + b)x + ab = (x - a)(x - b)
Geometry Relations
• Circumcenter (O), Centroid (G), and Orthocenter (H) lie on the Euler Line.
• OG : GH = 1 : 2
• OH = 3 × OG
• In an equilateral triangle: O ≡ G ≡ H
