Midpoint Formula:((A + C)/2), (B + D)/2)) where (A, B) and (C, D) are the endpoints of the segment.
Midpoint Formula in Space:(((A + D)/2), ((B + E)/2), ((C + F)/2)) where (A, B, C) and (D, E, F) are the endpoints of the segment.


Perimeter Formulas

Equilateral Polygon Perimeter Formula: n * s, where n is the number of sides and s is the length of those sides.
Circle Circumference Formula: Pid where d is the diameter of the circle.


Area Formulas

Triangle Area Formulas: 1/2 * ab * sin(c) where a and b are sides and c is the enclosed angle; 1/2 * hb where h is the height and b is the length of the base.
Equilateral Triangle Area Formulas: (s2 * 3) / 4 where s is the length of one side.
Right Triangle Area Formula: Half of the product of the length of the legs.
SSS Triangle Area Formula: the square root of (S(S - a)(S - b)(S - c)) where a, b, and c are sides and S is (a + b + c)/2
Trapezoid Area Formula: 1/2 * h(l1 + l2) where h is the altitude and l1 + l2 are the bases.
Parallelogram Area Formula: lh where l is the l is the length of one of the bases and h is the length of the altitude.
Circle Area Formula: Pir2 where r is the radius
Pick's Formula: 1/2 * P + I - 1 where P is the number of points on the polygon and I is the number of points in the polygon if the polygon is in a coordinate plane.
Right Prism - Cylinder Lateral Area Formula: ph where the p is the perimeter (circumference) and h is the height
Prism - Cylinder Surface Area Formula: L.A. + 2B where L.A. is the lateral area and B is the area of the base.
