Cluster:
Geometric measurement: understand concepts of volume and relate volume to multiplication and to addition.

Standard:
Recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and understand concepts of volume measurement. A solid figure which can be packed without gaps or overlaps using n unit cubes is said to have a volume of n cubic units.

Cluster:
Geometric measurement: understand concepts of volume and relate volume to multiplication and to addition.

Standard:
Measure volumes by counting unit cubes, using cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft, and improvised units.

Cluster:
Geometric measurement: understand concepts of volume and relate volume to multiplication and to addition.

Standard:
Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real-world and mathematical problems involving volume. Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with whole-number side lengths by packing it with unit cubes, and show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge lengths, equivalently by multiplying the height by the area of the base. Represent threefold whole-number products as volumes, e.g., to represent the associative property of multiplication.

Geometric measurement: understand concepts of volume and relate volume to multiplication and to addition.

Standard:
Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real-world and mathematical problems involving volume. Apply the formulas V = l × w × h and V = b × h for rectangular prisms to find volumes of right rectangular prisms with whole-number edge lengths in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.

Standard:
Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real-world and mathematical problems involving volume. Recognize volume as additive. Find volumes of solid figures composed of two non-overlapping right rectangular prisms by adding the volumes of the non-overlapping parts, applying this technique to solve real-world problems.

Cluster:
Experiment with transformations in the plane.

Standard:
Know precise definitions of angle, circle, perpendicular line, parallel line, and line segment, based on the undefined notions of point, line, distance along a line, and distance around a circular arc.

Cluster:
Make geometric constructions. [Formalize and explain processes.]

Standard:
Make formal geometric constructions with a variety of tools and methods (compass and straightedge, string, reflective devices, paper folding, dynamic geometric software, etc.). Copying a segment; copying an angle; bisecting a segment; bisecting an angle; constructing perpendicular lines, including the perpendicular bisector of a line segment; and constructing a line parallel to a given line through a point not on the line.

Cluster:
Make geometric constructions. [Formalize and explain processes.]

Standard:
Construct an equilateral triangle, a square, and a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle.

Cluster:
Experiment with transformations in the plane.

Standard:
Represent transformations in the plane using, e.g., transparencies and geometry software; describe transformations as functions that take points in the plane as inputs and give other points as outputs. Compare transformations that preserve distance and angle to those that do not (e.g., translation versus horizontal stretch).

Cluster:
Experiment with transformations in the plane.

Standard:
Given a rectangle, parallelogram, trapezoid, or regular polygon, describe the rotations and reflections that carry it onto itself.
