Right triangle
-A right triangle is triangle with an angle of 90 degrees the sides a, b, and c of such a
triangle satisfy the Pythagorean theorem
Pythagorean theory
- In a right angled triangle the square of the hypotenuse is equal to
the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

If we know the lengths of two sides of a right angled triangle, we can find the length of
the third side.

a2 + b2 = c2

SOHCAHTOA
- A way of remembering how to compute the sine, cosine, and tangent of an angle. SOH
stands for Sine equals Opposite over Hypotenuse. CAH stands for Cosine equals Adjacent
over Hypotenuse. TOA stands for Tangent equals Opposite over Adjacent.

Circle

A circle is a shape with all points the same distance from its center.

Diameter/Radius
-The diameter of a circle, the circumference of a circle, the area of a
circle, the chord of a circle, arc and the arc length of a circle, sector
and the area of the sector of a circle
Chord, Segant, Tangent
-A segment that connects two distinct points on a circle is called a
chord. A chord that passes through the center of a circle is called a
diameter. A line that intersects with the circle at exactly two points is
called a secant line.
