Areas
square = a2 
  rectangle = ab
   parallelogram = bh 
  trapezoid = h/2 (b1 + b2)
   circle = pi r 2 
  ellipse = pi r1 r2 
  triangle = (1/2) b h 
  equilateral triangle = (1/4)(3) a2 
  triangle given SAS = (1/2) a b sin C  
triangle given a,b,c = [s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] when s = (a+b+c)/2 (Heron's formula)
  regular polygon = (1/2) n sin(360�/n) S2 when n = # of sides and S = length from center to a corner

   VOLUMES  cube = a3 
  rectangular prism = a b c
   irregular prism = b h  
cylinder = b h =  r2 h 
  pyramid = (1/3) b h  
cone = (1/3) b h = 1/3  r2 h  
sphere = (4/3)  r3   
ellipsoid = (4/3) pi r1 r2 r3  


  SURFACE AREAS 

cube = 6 a2  
prism:     (lateral area) = perimeter(b) L     (total area) = perimeter(b) L + 2b   
sphere = 4  r2
