Example 1:
Problem/activity:
Find the general solution for:
$${\mathrm{cos}\left({\pi\over2}+x\right)=\mathrm{tan}{\pi\over4}}$$


Description: 
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.

Example 2:
Problem/activity:
Task
Solve the quadratic equation
$$ x^2 = (2x - 9)^2 $$
using as many different methods as possible.


Description: 
Understand that the graph of an equation in two variables is the set of all its solutions plotted in the coordinate plane, often forming a curve (which could be a line).

Answer: 
No. This task does not involve an equation in two variables. There is only one variable, x.

Example 3:
Problem/activity:
Task
Suppose $A$ is an angle with vertex $P$, as pictured below:
[IMG]
Draw a circle with center $P$ and with  radius $r \gt 0$.  Explain why the circle
meets each ray of angle $A$ in a single point.  Label these points $Q$ and $R$ respectively.
Draw circles with centers $Q$ and $R$ respectively and radius $r$.  These circles meet at $P$ and a second point to be labelled $B$.
Show that ray $\overrightarrow{PB}$  bisects angle $P$.


Description: 
Make formal geometric constructions with a variety of tools and methods (compass and straightedge, string, reflective devices, paper folding, dynamic geometric software, etc.). Copying a segment; copying an angle; bisecting a segment; bisecting an angle; constructing perpendicular lines, including the perpendicular bisector of a line segment; and constructing a line parallel to a given line through a point not on the line.

Answer: 
Yes. This task asks students to draw a ray that bisects an angle. The act of drawing circles and rays may involve compass and straightedge or dynamic geometric software.

Now, assess whether the following problem or activity aligns with the provided description.

standard_description: Express a fraction with denominator 10 as an equivalent fraction with denominator 100, and use this technique to add two fractions with respective denominators 10 and 100. (Students who can generate equivalent fractions can develop strategies for adding fractions with unlike denominators in general. But addition and subtraction with unlike denominators in general is not a requirement at this grade.) For example, express 3/10 as 30/100, and add 3/10 + 4/100 = 34/100.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.
problem_activity: Narrative
This activity develops students’ understanding of the vertical method of recording partial quotients and their ability to use it to perform division. One of the quotients here involves a remainder, prompting students to interpret it. Students are reminded that the term “remainder” is used to describe “leftovers” when dividing.

Activity
3 minutes: independent work time on the first 2 problems.
Pause after problem 2 to discuss students’ responses.
Display the different ways that students decompose 389 to divide it by 7.
“Most other calculations we’ve seen so far end with a 0, but this one ends with a 4. What does the 4 tell us?” (We cannot make a group of 7 with 4 leftover. 389 is not a multiple of 7, and there are leftovers.)
“When we divide and end up with leftovers we call them remainders, because they represent what is remaining after we divide into equal groups.”
Display:
\(389 = 7 \times 55 + 4\)
“How does this equation show that
\(389 \div 7\)
has a remainder?” (It shows that 389 is not a multiple of 7. It also shows that 7 and 55 make a factor pair for 385, and 389 is 4 more than that.)
3 minutes: independent work time on the last 2 problems.
As students work on the last two problems monitor for students who:
start with the largest multiple of 3 and 10 within 702 that they can think of to decompose the dividend (690, 600).
use the fewest steps to find the quotient.
Student Facing
Jada used partial quotients to find out how many groups of 7 are in 389.

Activity Synthesis
Display responses that show variation in how students decomposed 702 in problem 3.
Highlight that there are countless ways of using partial quotients to divide a number, but it may be more efficient to divide larger groups than smaller groups (for example, removing 350 once, as opposed to removing 70 five times. Removing smaller groups is just as valid, however.)
To help students see the relationship between corresponding partial products and partial quotients, consider illustrating them visually. Some examples:
