Showing 41 - 50 of 60 Standards

Standard Identifier: 8.NS.2

Grade: 8
Domain: The Number System

Cluster:
Know that there are numbers that are not rational, and approximate them by rational numbers.

Standard:
Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g.,π^2). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of √2, show that √2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.

Standard Identifier: F-TF.8

Grade Range: 8–12
Domain: Trigonometric Functions
Discipline: Math II
Conceptual Category: Functions

Cluster:
Prove and apply trigonometric identities.

Standard:
Prove the Pythagorean identity sin^2(θ ) + cos^2(θ ) = 1 and use it to find sin(θ ), cos(θ ), or tan(θ ) given sin(θ ), cos(θ ), or tan(θ ) and the quadrant of the angle.

Standard Identifier: G-MG.1

Grade Range: 8–12
Domain: Modeling with Geometry
Discipline: Geometry
Conceptual Category: Geometry

Cluster:
Apply geometric concepts in modeling situations.

Standard:
Use geometric shapes, their measures, and their properties to describe objects (e.g., modeling a tree trunk or a human torso as a cylinder). *

Standard Identifier: G-MG.2

Grade Range: 8–12
Domain: Modeling with Geometry
Discipline: Geometry
Conceptual Category: Geometry

Cluster:
Apply geometric concepts in modeling situations.

Standard:
Apply concepts of density based on area and volume in modeling situations (e.g., persons per square mile, BTUs per cubic foot). *

Standard Identifier: G-MG.3

Grade Range: 8–12
Domain: Modeling with Geometry
Discipline: Geometry
Conceptual Category: Geometry

Cluster:
Apply geometric concepts in modeling situations.

Standard:
Apply geometric methods to solve design problems (e.g., designing an object or structure to satisfy physical constraints or minimize cost; working with typographic grid systems based on ratios). *

Standard Identifier: N-RN.1

Grade Range: 8–12
Domain: The Real Number System
Discipline: Math II
Conceptual Category: Number and Quantity

Cluster:
Extend the properties of exponents to rational exponents.

Standard:
Explain how the definition of the meaning of rational exponents follows from extending the properties of integer exponents to those values, allowing for a notation for radicals in terms of rational exponents. For example, we define 5^1/3 to be the cube root of 5 because we want (5^1/3)^3 = 5(^1/3)^3 to hold, so (5^1/3)^3 must equal 5.

Standard Identifier: N-RN.2

Grade Range: 8–12
Domain: The Real Number System
Discipline: Math II
Conceptual Category: Number and Quantity

Cluster:
Extend the properties of exponents to rational exponents.

Standard:
Rewrite expressions involving radicals and rational exponents using the properties of exponents.

Standard Identifier: N-RN.3

Grade Range: 8–12
Domain: The Real Number System
Discipline: Math II
Conceptual Category: Number and Quantity

Cluster:
Use properties of rational and irrational numbers.

Standard:
Explain why the sum or product of two rational numbers is rational; that the sum of a rational number and an irrational number is irrational; and that the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is irrational.

Standard Identifier: F-TF.1

Grade Range: 9–12
Domain: Trigonometric Functions
Discipline: Algebra II
Conceptual Category: Functions

Cluster:
Extend the domain of trigonometric functions using the unit circle.

Standard:

Discipline: Math III
Conceptual Category: Functions

Cluster:
Extend the domain of trigonometric functions using the unit circle.

Standard:
Understand radian measure of an angle as the length of the arc on the unit circle subtended by the angle.
