Introduction
This PDF contains essential formulas, tips, and practice questions for high school math.
Class Notes
• Quadratic formula: x = (-b ± √(b²-4ac)) / 2a
• Pythagorean theorem: a² + b² = c²
• Slope of a line: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
• Area formulas: Circle πr², Triangle ½bh, Rectangle lw
• Factoring techniques: difference of squares, trinomials
