Cluster:
Prove theorems involving similarity.

Standard:
Use congruence and similarity criteria for triangles to solve problems and to prove relationships in geometric figures.

Cluster:
Define trigonometric ratios and solve problems involving right triangles.

Standard:
Understand that by similarity, side ratios in right triangles are properties of the angles in the triangle, leading to definitions of trigonometric ratios for acute angles.

Cluster:
Define trigonometric ratios and solve problems involving right triangles.

Standard:
Explain and use the relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles.

Cluster:
Define trigonometric ratios and solve problems involving right triangles.

Standard:
Use trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean Theorem to solve right triangles in applied problems. *

Cluster:
Define trigonometric ratios and solve problems involving right triangles.

Standard:
Derive and use the trigonometric ratios for special right triangles (30°, 60°, 90°and 45°, 45°, 90°). CA

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:
Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of the context. [Emphasize selection of appropriate models.]

Standard:
For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship. Key features include: intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; and periodicity. *

Cluster:
Interpret functions that arise in applications in terms of the context. [Include rational, square root and cube root; emphasize selection of appropriate models.]

Standard:
Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. For example, if the function h gives the number of person-hours it takes to assemble n engines in a factory, then the positive integers would be an appropriate domain for the function.*
