Example:
Concept/skill: 
Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual model.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.

Problem/activity:
Task
Cruz and Erica were both getting ready for soccer.
Cruz ran 1 lap around the school.
Erica ran 3 laps around the playground.
Erica said,
I ran more laps, so I ran farther.
Cruz said,
4 laps around the school is 1 mile, but it takes 12 laps around the playground to go 1 mile. My laps are much longer, so I ran farther.
Who is right? Draw a picture to help you explain your answer.


Answer: 
No. This task does not involve comparing decimals to hundredths. Instead, it involves fraction comparisons.

standard_description: Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to determine unknown side lengths in right triangles in real-world and mathematical problems in two and three dimensions.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Brandon and Madison use different triangles to determine the slope of the line shown below.
[IMG]
Brandon started at (0,-1) and drew a right triangle going up 2 units and right 3 units.
Madison started at (-3,-3) and drew a right triangle going up 6 units and right 9 units.
Draw and label both triangles on the graph.
How can Brandon and Madison use their triangles to find the slope?
What trigonometric ratio do Brandon and Madison use to find the slope?
Problem 2
Below is a line segment on a coordinate grid.
[IMG]
Draw the right triangle that you can use to find the length of this line segment.
Find the length of the line segment.
Find the measure of all of the angles of the triangle formed.
Problem 3
Standing on the gallery of a lighthouse (the deck at the top of a lighthouse), a person spots a ship at an angle of depression of 20°. The lighthouse is 28 meters tall and sits on a cliff 45 meters tall as measured from sea level.  What is the horizontal distance between the lighthouse and the ship?
