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.

Now, assess whether the following problem or activity is 'aligned' with the given Common Core standard in Mathematics.

a.   Explain what point B represents in context of the situation.
b.   At what rate is the plant growing? Indicate this as a point on the graph.
c.   Write an equation that represents the relationship between days and height.
d.   If the plant continues to grow at this rate, how tall will it be after 12 days?
e.   If the plant continues to grow at this rate, when will it be 6 cm tall?
