Example:
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.

standard_description: Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal and explain different properties of the function.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Read each situation below and then answer the questions that follow.
Situation A:
In the spring, an animal shelter had 216 animals. By the end of the summer, this number decreased by 8%. How many animals were at the shelter at the end of summer?
Situation B:
After advertising for adoptions on local television, an animal shelter decreased the number of animals at the shelter by 8%. There are now 216 animals. How many animals were at the shelter before the advertising?
a.   Sketch a visual diagram to represent each situation.
b.   How are the two situations similar?
c.   How are the two situations different?
Problem 2
A store sells backpacks in two sizes: small and large. The large backpacks sell for 20% more than the smaller backpacks. If a large backpack costs $75, how much does the small size cost?
Draw a visual representation of the situation, and then use an equation to solve.
