Cluster:
Apply trigonometry to general triangles.

Standard:
(+) Understand and apply the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines to find unknown measurements in right and non-right triangles (e.g., surveying problems, resultant forces).

Cluster:
Apply trigonometry to general triangles.

Standard:
(+) Derive the formula A = 1/2 ab sin(C) for the area of a triangle by drawing an auxiliary line from a vertex perpendicular to the opposite side.

Cluster:
Use probability to evaluate outcomes of decisions. [Include more complex situations.]

Standard:
(+) Use probabilities to make fair decisions (e.g., drawing by lots, using a random number generator). *

Cluster:
Calculate expected values and use them to solve problems.

Standard:
(+) Define a random variable for a quantity of interest by assigning a numerical value to each event in a sample space; graph the corresponding probability distribution using the same graphical displays as for data distributions. *

Cluster:
Calculate expected values and use them to solve problems.

Standard:
(+) Calculate the expected value of a random variable; interpret it as the mean of the probability distribution. *

Cluster:
Calculate expected values and use them to solve problems.

Standard:
(+) Develop a probability distribution for a random variable defined for a sample space in which theoretical probabilities can be calculated; find the expected value. For example, find the theoretical probability distribution for the number of correct answers obtained by guessing on all five questions of a multiple-choice test where each question has four choices, and find the expected grade under various grading schemes.*

Cluster:
Calculate expected values and use them to solve problems.

Standard:
(+) Develop a probability distribution for a random variable defined for a sample space in which probabilities are assigned empirically; find the expected value. For example, find a current data distribution on the number of TV sets per household in the United States, and calculate the expected number of sets per household. How many TV sets would you expect to find in 100 randomly selected households? *
