MENSURATION

PYTHAGORAS’ THEOREM
For all the right angled triangles “ the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the
sum of the squares on the other two sides”
𝑐 2 = 𝑎2 + 𝑏 2

𝒄 = 𝑎2 + 𝑏 2 𝒃 = 𝑐 2 − 𝑎2 𝒂 = 𝑐 2 − 𝑏2

Area and Perimeter:


Figure Diagram Area Perimeter
Rectangle
w Area = l × w perimeter = 2( 𝑙 +w )

l
Square l

l l
Area = side × side perimeter = 4 × side
l = l×l =4×l

Parallelogram Area = b × h

perimeter = 2(a + b )

Area = ab sin 𝜃
where a, b are sides and 𝜃 is
the included angle
