This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - All interior angles in a triangle sum to 180 degrees, a foundational rule for solving for missing angles. - The Pythagorean theorem (a² + b² = c²) applies only to right triangles, where 'c' is always the hypotenuse opposite the right angle. - Memorizing special right triangle ratios like 3-4-5 and 5-12-13 can save significant time over manual calculations. - In problems with parallel lines cut by a transversal, all acute angles are equal, all obtuse angles are equal, and any acute plus any obtuse angle equals 180. - Always draw and label a diagram for geometry word problems to visualize relationships before attempting to solve.
