Slope between two points
m=y2−y1x2−x1m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}
Slope-intercept form
y=mx+by = mx + b
Point-slope form
y−y1=m(x−x1)y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)
Quadratic formula
x=−b±b2−4ac2ax = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}
Difference of squares
a2−b2=(a−b)(a+b)a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)
Perfect square trinomial
a2+2ab+b2=(a+b)2a^2 + 2ab + b^2 = (a + b)^2
Negative exponent
a−n=1ana^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}
