Geometry Beyond the Basics

SAT Geometry covers circles, triangles, polygons, and three-dimensional shapes. Trigonometry focuses on the relationships between angles and sides in right triangles.

Key Formulas

• Area of a Circle: \( A = \pi r^2 \)
• Pythagorean Theorem: \( a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \)
• Sine, Cosine, Tangent: \( \sin \theta = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} \)

Applications

• Calculating distances and heights (architecture, sports)
• Navigating with maps and GPS

Tips for Success

• Memorize key formulas.
• Draw diagrams to visualize problems.
