Cluster:
Summarize, represent, and interpret data on two categorical and quantitative variables. [Linear focus; discuss general principle.]

Standard:
Represent data on two quantitative variables on a scatter plot, and describe how the variables are related. * Fit a linear function for a scatter plot that suggests a linear association. *

Cluster:
Interpret linear models.

Standard:
Interpret the slope (rate of change) and the intercept (constant term) of a linear model in the context of the data. *

Cluster:
Interpret linear models.

Standard:
Compute (using technology) and interpret the correlation coefficient of a linear fit. *

Cluster:
Interpret linear models.

Standard:
Distinguish between correlation and causation. *

Cluster:
Perform arithmetic operations on polynomials. [Polynomials that simplify to quadratics]

Standard:
Understand that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply polynomials.

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.
