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

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


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: Count within 1000; skip-count by 5s, 10s, and 100s.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this Choral Count is for students to practice counting back by 10 and notice patterns in the count. These understandings help students develop fluency and will be helpful later in this lesson when students will need to be able to decompose hundreds.
Launch
“Count back by 10, starting at 590.”
Record as students count.
Stop counting and recording at 390.
Activity
“What patterns do you see?”
1–2 minutes: quiet think time
