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


Concept/skill: 
Prove the addition and subtraction formulas for sine, cosine, and tangent and use them to solve problems.

Answer: 
Yes. An initial step when solving for x in this problem requires the use of the addition formula for cosine on the left side of the equation.

problem_activity: Narrative
This warm-up prompts students to compare four comparison statements. It gives the teacher an opportunity to hear how students use terminology and talk about characteristics of the items in comparison. During the synthesis, ask students to explain the meaning of any terminology they use, such as comparing, greater than, and less than.

Activity Synthesis
“How do you know that C is false?” (35 isn't less than 20 because 35 has 3 tens and 20 only has 2 tens.)
“What could you change about C to make it true?” (Use the greater than symbol or switch the symbol around.)
