Hello Anna,
You can find a lot of shortcuts like these in the Go menu in the Finder.
Wherever a menu item has a shortcut, you'll find it after the item description.
Knowing shortcuts saves so much time.

When the trackpad is on, you can hold down the VO keys and rotate 2
fingers counter-clockwise to turn it off.
When you want to turn it back on, hold down the VO keys and rotate 2
