Maths formulas for class 8 list provided here consolidates all the important formulas that are required in class 8. These maths formulas will help students to solve questions easily and in a more effective way.

Most of the students of class 8 feel that formulas are difficult to grasp and remember. However, when the logic behind problem and formulas are understood properly, solving any kind of Maths problem becomes easier. If the students are confident with all the below-mentioned formulas, they can easily solve different variations of questions and get acquainted with the concepts better.

Class 8 Maths Formulas List

Class 8 formulas in Maths are segregated into two types here, which are Geometry formulas and Algebra formulas. The common and the most important class 8 Maths formulas are mentioned in the tables given below.

Geometry Formulas for Class 8

To recall, geometric shapes are of two types which are 2D shapes and 3D shapes (or solid shapes). The list for all the 2D and 3D geometric shapes are:

Geometry Shapes Formulas for Solid Shapes:

Name of the Solid Lateral / Curved Surface Area Total Surface Area Volume
Cuboid 2h (l + b) 2 (lb + bh + hl) l × b × h
Cube 4a2 6a2 a3
Right Prism Perimeter of Base × Height Lateral Surface Area + 2(Area of One End) Area of Base × Height
Right Circular Cylinder 2 (π × r × h) 2πr (r + h) πr2h
Right Pyramid ½ (Perimeter of Base × Slant Height) Lateral Surface Area + Area of the Base ⅓ (Area of the Base) × Height
Right Circular Cone πrl πr (l + r) ⅓ (πr2h)
Sphere 4πr2 4πr2 4/3 (πr3)
Hemisphere 2πr2 3πr2 ⅔ (πr3)

Geometry Shapes Formulas for 2D Shapes:

Geometric Area Geometric Area Formula
Square a2
Rectangle a × b
Circle πr2
Ellipse πr1r2
Triangle ½(b × h)

Algebra Formulas for Class 8

Some important 8th class formulas related to Algebra are:

Algebraic Identities For Class 8
(a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
(a − b)2 = a2 − 2ab + b2
(a + b) (a – b) = a2 – b2
(x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b)x + ab
(x + a) (x – b) = x2 + (a – b)x – ab
(x – a) (x + b) = x2 + (b – a)x – ab
(x – a) (x – b) = x2 – (a + b)x + ab
(a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)
(a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab (a – b)

These are some of the important 8th class formulas in Maths which are crucial for solving problems and for the exams. Check out the below-given links, which are a few important Maths resources for class 8 Maths.
