Cluster:
Understand congruence and similarity using physical models, transparencies, or geometry software.

Standard:
Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles. For example, arrange three copies of the same triangle so that the sum of the three angles appears to form a line, and give an argument in terms of transversals why this is so.

Cluster:
Understand and apply the Pythagorean Theorem.

Standard:
Explain a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse.

Cluster:
Understand and apply the Pythagorean Theorem.

Standard:
Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to determine unknown side lengths in right triangles in real-world and mathematical problems in two and three dimensions.

Cluster:
Understand and apply the Pythagorean Theorem.

Standard:
Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between two points in a coordinate system.

Cluster:
Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving volume of cylinders, cones, and spheres.

Standard:
Know the formulas for the volumes of cones, cylinders, and spheres and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems.

Cluster:
Construct and compare linear, quadratic, and exponential models and solve problems. [Include quadratic.]

Standard:
Observe using graphs and tables that a quantity increasing exponentially eventually exceeds a quantity increasing linearly, quadratically, or (more generally) as a polynomial function. *

Cluster:
Interpret expressions for functions in terms of the situation they model.

Standard:
Apply quadratic functions to physical problems, such as the motion of an object under the force of gravity. CA *

Cluster:
Understand similarity in terms of similarity transformations.

Standard:
Verify experimentally the properties of dilations given by a center and a scale factor: A dilation takes a line not passing through the center of the dilation to a parallel line, and leaves a line passing through the center unchanged.

Cluster:
Understand similarity in terms of similarity transformations.

Standard:
Verify experimentally the properties of dilations given by a center and a scale factor: A dilation takes a line not passing through the center of the dilation to a parallel line, and leaves a line passing through the center unchanged.

Cluster:
Understand similarity in terms of similarity transformations.

Standard:
Verify experimentally the properties of dilations given by a center and a scale factor: The dilation of a line segment is longer or shorter in the ratio given by the scale factor.
