Geometry Revision

Angles, shapes, area & volume — part of Maths on KODO.

AQA Edexcel OCR WJEC SQA

Geometry is a core area of Maths in the national curriculum. It covers essential concepts that build the foundation for GCSE study and beyond.

This topic includes subtopics such as Angles on a straight line, Angles in a triangle, Area (rectangle), Area (triangle) and more. Each area is tested with multiple-choice questions that include detailed explanations to deepen your understanding.

Quick Reference

Rectangle arealength × width
Circle areaπ × r²
Angles in a triangleAlways add to 180°
Cuboid volumelength × width × height

Key Definitions

Perimeter
The total distance around the outside of a 2D shape.
Area
The amount of space inside a 2D shape, measured in square units (cm², m²).
Volume
The amount of space inside a 3D shape, measured in cubic units (cm³, m³).
Parallel lines
Lines that are always the same distance apart and never meet.
Perpendicular
Two lines that meet at a right angle (90°).

Memory Tricks & Mnemonics

"Area of a triangle = ½ × base × height" — "Half a rectangle"

Visualise the triangle as half of the rectangle it fits inside.

"Angles in a triangle add to 180°, in a quadrilateral 360°"

Use these facts to find missing angles.

"SOH CAH TOA" — Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse, Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse, Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

Trigonometry ratios for right-angled triangles (higher tier).
