Trigonometric Identities

Quadratics
Discriminant:

If discriminant is positive, there are two real number roots:

If the discriminant is zero, there is one real number root:

If the discriminant is negative, there are no real number roots.

Simultaneous Equations
There are two methods: Substitution and Elimination.

Gradient:

Midpoint:

form:

Parabolas
y = ax2

a = leading coefficient

If a > 0 (positive), parabola is concave up. If a < 0 (negative), parabola is concave

down.
y = ax2 + c
If c > 0 (positive), parabola shifts up c units. If c < 0 (negative), parabola shifts
down c units.

General form:

y = ax2 + bx + c

Standard form: y = a(x h)2 + k

Vertex at (h, k)

If k > 0 (positive), parabola shifts up k units. If k < 0 (negative), parabola shifts

down k units.

If h > 0 (positive), parabola shifts left h units. If h < 0 (negative), parabola shifts
right h units.

Centre coordinates (a, b)

Centre coordinates (0, 0)

Logarithms
a0 = 1 loga1 = 0
y = ax logay = x
logaa = 1

Change of base formula:

Algebraic Expansions
a2 + b2 = (a + b)2 2

a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 ab + b2)
a3 b3 = (a b)(a2 + ab + b2)
(a + b)3 = a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3
(a b)3 = a3 3a2b + 3ab2 b3
