Part 5: Key Revision Tips

  1. Memorize these formulas:

    • Sum of interior angles = (n-2) × 180°

    • Each interior angle (regular) = (n-2) × 180° ÷ n

    • Sum of exterior angles = 360° (always!)

    • Each exterior angle (regular) = 360° ÷ n

  2. Angle rules to know by heart:

    • Straight line = 180°

    • Point = 360°

    • Triangle = 180°

    • Quadrilateral = 360°

  3. Symmetry facts:

    • Square: 4 lines, order 4

    • Rectangle: 2 lines, order 2

    • Rhombus: 2 lines, order 2

    • Equilateral triangle: 3 lines, order 3

    • Regular pentagon: 5 lines, order 5

  4. 3D shapes vocabulary:

    • Face: Flat surface

    • Edge: Where two faces meet

    • Vertex: Corner point

    • Euler's Formula: F + V = E + 2

  5. Practice with nets: Visualize how 2D nets fold into 3D shapes.

  6. Coordinate rules:

    • Reflection in x-axis: (x, y) → (x, -y)

    • Reflection in y-axis: (x, y) → (-x, y)

    • Rotation 90° clockwise: (x, y) → (y, -x)

Remember: Draw diagrams whenever possible. Label angles clearly. Check your answers by making sure angle sums are correct. Practice identifying shapes from different orientations.
