Cluster:
Prove geometric theorems. [Focus on validity of underlying reasoning while using variety of ways of writing proofs.]

Standard:
Prove theorems about parallelograms. Theorems include: opposite sides are congruent, opposite angles are congruent, the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, and conversely, rectangles are parallelograms with congruent diagonals.

Cluster:
Prove geometric theorems. [Focus on validity of underlying reasoning while using variety of ways of writing proofs.]

Standard:
Prove theorems about lines and angles. Theorems include: vertical angles are congruent; when a transversal crosses parallel lines, alternate interior angles are congruent and corresponding angles are congruent; points on a perpendicular bisector of a line segment are exactly those equidistant from the segment’s endpoints.

Cluster:
Translate between the geometric description and the equation for a conic section.

Standard:
Derive the equation of a circle of given center and radius using the Pythagorean Theorem; complete the square to find the center and radius of a circle given by an equation.

Cluster:
Translate between the geometric description and the equation for a conic section.

Standard:
Derive the equation of a parabola given a focus and directrix.

Cluster:
Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically.

Standard:
Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically. For example, prove or disprove that a figure defined by four given points in the coordinate plane is a rectangle; prove or disprove that the point (1, √3) lies on the circle centered at the origin and containing the point (0, 2). [Include simple circle theorems.]

Cluster:
Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically.

Standard:
Find the point on a directed line segment between two given points that partitions the segment in a given ratio.

Cluster:
Build a function that models a relationship between two quantities. [Include all types of functions studied.]

Standard:
Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities. * Combine standard function types using arithmetic operations. For example, build a function that models the temperature of a cooling body by adding a constant function to a decaying exponential, and relate these functions to the model. *

Cluster:
Build new functions from existing functions. [Include simple radical, rational, and exponential functions; emphasize common effect of each transformation across function types.]

Standard:
Identify the effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by f(x) + k, kf(x), f(kx), and f(x + k) for specific values of k (both positive and negative); find the value of k given the graphs. Experiment with cases and illustrate an explanation of the effects on the graph using technology. Include recognizing even and odd functions from their graphs and algebraic expressions for them.

Cluster:
Build new functions from existing functions. [Include simple radical, rational, and exponential functions; emphasize common effect of each transformation across function types.]

Standard:
Find inverse functions. Solve an equation of the form f(x) = c for a simple function f that has an inverse and write an expression for the inverse. For example, f(x) =2x^3 or f(x) = (x + 1)/(x − 1) for x ≠ 1.

Cluster:
Translate between the geometric description and the equation for a conic section.

Standard:
Given a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + by^2 + cx + dy + e = 0, use the method for completing the square to put the equation into standard form; identify whether the graph of the equation is a circle, ellipse, parabola, or hyperbola and graph the equation. [In Algebra II, this standard addresses only circles and parabolas.] CA
