If the probability of event A happening is P (A), then the probability of event A not
happening is P (not A) = 1 − P (A).
Logic (Optional):
The statement “event A implies event B” is logically the same as “not event B implies not
event A”. However, “event A implies event B” is not logically the same as “event B implies
http://www.erikthered.com/tutor pg. 2
SAT Subject Math Level 1 Facts & Formulas
event A”. To see this, try an example, such as A = {it rains} and B = {the road is wet}.
If it rains, then the road gets wet (A ⇒ B); alternatively, if the road is not wet, it didn’t
rain (not B ⇒ not A). However, if the road is wet, it didn’t necessarily rain (B 6⇒ A).
Factoring, Solving
a2 + 2ab + b2 = (a + b)(a + b)
a2 − 2ab + b2 = (a − b)(a − b)
You can use Reverse FOIL to factor a polynomial by thinking about two numbers a and b
which add to the number in front of the x, and which multiply to give the constant. For
example, to factor x2 + 5x + 6, the numbers add to 5 and multiply to 6, i.e., a = 2 and
b = 3, so that x2 + 5x + 6 = (x + 2)(x + 3).
To solve a quadratic such as x2 +bx+c = 0, first factor the left side to get (x+a)(x+b) = 0,
then set each part in parentheses equal to zero. E.g., x2 + 4x + 3 = (x + 3)(x + 1) = 0 so
that x = −3 or x = −1.
The solution to the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 can always be found (if it exists)
using the quadratic formula: √
−b ± b2 − 4ac
x= .
2a
Note that if b2 − 4ac < 0, then there is no solution to the equation. If b2 − 4ac = 0, there
is exactly one solution, namely, x = −b/2a. If b2 − 4ac > 0, there are two solutions to the
equation.
To solve two linear equations in x and y: use the first equation to substitute for a variable
in the second. E.g., suppose x + y = 3 and 4x − y = 2. The first equation gives y = 3 − x,
so the second equation becomes 4x − (3 − x) = 2 ⇒ 5x − 3 = 2 ⇒ x = 1, y = 2.
http://www.erikthered.com/tutor pg. 3
SAT Subject Math Level 1 Facts & Formulas
Solving two linear equations in x and y is geometrically the same as finding where two lines
intersect. In the example above, the lines intersect at the point (1, 2). Two parallel lines
will have no solution, and two overlapping lines will have an infinite number of solutions.
Functions
A function is a rule to go from one number (x) to another number (y), usually written
y = f (x).
The set of possible values of x is called the domain of f (), and the corresponding set of
possible values of y is called the range of f (). For any given value of x, there can only be
one corresponding value y.
Translations:
Absolute value:
+x, if x ≥ 0;
|x| =
−x, if x < 0.
|x| < n ⇒ −n < x < n
|x| > n ⇒ x < −n or x > n
Parabolas:
y = ax2 + bx + c.
If a > 0, the parabola opens up. If a < 0, the parabola opens down. The y-intercept is c,
and the x-coordinate of the vertex is x = −b/2a.
Compound Functions:
A function can be applied directly to the y-value of another function. This is usually
written with one function inside the parentheses of another function. For example:
For example, if f (x) = 3x − 2 and g(x) = x2 , then f (g(3)) = f (32 ) = f (9) = 3 · 9 − 2 = 25.
http://www.erikthered.com/tutor pg. 4
SAT Subject Math Level 1 Facts & Formulas
Inverse Functions (Optional):
Since a function f () is a rule to go from one number (x) to another number (y), an inverse
function f −1 () can be defined as a rule to go from the number y back to the number x. In
other words, if y = f (x), then x = f −1 (y).
To get the inverse function, substitute y for f (x), solve for x in terms of y, and substitute
f −1 (y) for x. For example, if f (x) = 2x + 6, then x = (y − 6)/2 so that f −1 (y) = y/2 − 3.
Note that the function f (), given x = 1, returns y = 8, and that f −1 (y), given y = 8,
returns x = 1.
Complex Numbers
A complex number is of the form a + bi where i2 = −1. When multiplying complex
numbers, treat i just like any other variable (letter), except remember to replace powers
of i with −1 or 1 as follows (the pattern repeats after the first four):
i0 = 1 i1 = i i2 = −1 i3 = −i
i4 = 1 i5 = i i6 = −1 i7 = −i
For example, using “FOIL” and i2 = −1: (1 + 3i)(5 − 2i) = 5 − 2i + 15i − 6i2 = 11 + 13i.
y2 − y 1 rise
Slope of the line: =
x2 − x 1 run
Point-slope form: given the slope m and a point (x1 , y1 ) on the line, the equation of the
line is (y − y1 ) = m(x − x1 ).
Slope-intercept form: given the slope m and the y-intercept b, then the equation of the
line is y = mx + b.
To find the equation of the line given two points A(x1 , y1 ) and B(x2 , y2 ), calculate the
slope m = (y2 − y1 )/(x2 − x1 ) and use the point-slope form.
Parallel lines have equal slopes. Perpendicular lines (i.e., those that make a 90◦ angle
where they intersect) have negative reciprocal slopes: m1 · m2 = −1.

Intersecting lines: opposite angles are equal. Also, each pair of angles along the same line
add to 180◦ . In the figure above, a + b = 180◦ .
Parallel lines: eight angles are formed when a line crosses two parallel lines. The four big
angles (a) are equal, and the four small angles (b) are equal.
Triangles

A good example of a right triangle is one with a = 3, b = 4, and c = 5, also called a 3–4–5
right triangle. Note that multiples of these numbers are also right triangles. For example,
if you multiply these numbers by 2, you get a = 6, b = 8, and c = 10 (6–8–10), which is
also a right triangle.
All triangles:

Area = ·b·h

http://www.erikthered.com/tutor pg. 6
SAT Subject Math Level 1 Facts & Formulas
Angles on the inside of any triangle add up to 180◦ .
The length of one side of any triangle is always less than the sum and more than the
difference of the lengths of the other two sides.
An exterior angle of any triangle is equal to the sum of the two remote interior angles.
Equilateral: These triangles have three equal sides, and all three
√ angles are 60 ◦ .
The area of an equilateral triangle is A = (side)2 · 3/4.
Isosceles: An isosceles triangle has two equal sides. The “base” angles
(the ones opposite the two sides) are equal (see the 45◦ triangle above).
Similar: Two or more triangles are similar if they have the same shape. The
corresponding angles are equal, and the corresponding sides
are in proportion. For example, the 3–4–5 triangle and the 6–8–10
triangle from before are similar since their sides are in a ratio of 2 to 1.
Trigonometry
Referring to the figure below, there are three important functions which are defined for
angles in a right triangle:
