standard_description: Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., p^(2)). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of Ö2, show that Ö2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.
problem_activity: Given:
$${{f(x)}=\mathrm{cos}(2x)}$$
$${g(x)=-\mathrm{cos}(x)}$$
[IMG]
a.   Describe the period, amplitude, and midline of the function
$${f(x)}$$
.
b.   Where is
$${f(x)}=g(x)$$
over the domain of
$${0\leq x \leq 2\pi}$$
?
