Cluster:
Prove geometric theorems. [Focus on validity of underlying reasoning while using variety of ways of writing proofs.]

Standard:
Prove theorems about lines and angles. Theorems include: vertical angles are congruent; when a transversal crosses parallel lines, alternate interior angles are congruent and corresponding angles are congruent; points on a perpendicular bisector of a line segment are exactly those equidistant from the segment’s endpoints.

Cluster:
Perform arithmetic operations on polynomials. [Beyond quadratic]

Standard:
Understand that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply polynomials.

Cluster:
Understand the relationship between zeros and factors of polynomials.

Standard:
Know and apply the Remainder Theorem: For a polynomial p(x) and a number a, the remainder on division by x – a is p(a), so p(a) = 0 if and only if (x – a) is a factor of p(x).

Cluster:
Understand the relationship between zeros and factors of polynomials.

Standard:
Identify zeros of polynomials when suitable factorizations are available, and use the zeros to construct a rough graph of the function defined by the polynomial.

Cluster:
Use polynomial identities to solve problems.

Standard:
Prove polynomial identities and use them to describe numerical relationships. For example, the polynomial identity (x^2 + y^2)2= (x^2 – y^2)^2 + (2xy)^2 can be used to generate Pythagorean triples.
