Problem/activity:
Find the general solution for:
$${\mathrm{cos}\left({\pi\over2}+x\right)=\mathrm{tan}{\pi\over4}}$$


Concept/skill: 
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.

Answer: 
No. This problem does not directly teach how side ratios in right triangles lead to definitions of trigonometric ratios. Instead, it involves solving a trigonometric function.

Now, does the following problem or activity enable students to learn the full intent of the following concept or skill?

standard_description: Prove polynomial identities and use them to describe numerical relationships. For example, the polynomial identity (x^(2) + y^(2))^(2) = (x^(2 )– y^(2))^(2) + (2xy)^(2 )can be used to generate Pythagorean triples.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this Number Talk is to elicit strategies and understandings students have for adding more than 2 two-digit numbers by making 100. The unit of cents also encourages students to consider how the value could be expressed using dollars, cents, or a combination of the two units. These understandings help students develop fluency.

Activity Synthesis
Revisit a student strategy that shows looking for a way to make 100 first and expresses the total in cents.
Consider asking:
“Who can restate _____'s reasoning in a different way?”
“Who can restate _____'s reasoning using dollars and cents?”
