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.

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: At a local bank, when you open an account, you provide certain information that is stored in the bank's records. The table below shows the names and mailing zip codes of some of the bank's customers.
{"table": [{"_attributes": {"align": "center", "class": ["table", "table-bordered"], "style": "table-layout:Fixed; width:50%"}, "tbody": [{"tr": [{"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "background-color:#eeeeee; text-align:center"}, "strong": [{"_value": "Customer Name"}]}, {"_attributes": {"style": "background-color:#eeeeee; text-align:center"}, "strong": [{"_value": "Zip Code"}]}]}, {"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "Tyler Jackson"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "70114"}]}, {"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "Justine Goodman"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "12084"}]}, {"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "Tristan Manuel"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "30311"}]}, {"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "Vanera Caro"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "30311"}]}, {"td": [{"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "Mia Lee"}, {"_attributes": {"style": "text-align:center"}, "_value": "20815"}]}]}]}]}
a.   Suppose
F
is the rule that takes a customer's name and provides their mailing zip code. According to the information in this table, is
F
a function? Explain your reasoning.
b.   Suppose
G
is the rule that takes a customer's mailing zip code and provides their name. According to the information in this table, is
G
a function? Explain your reasoning.
c.   If the bank is looking for a way to identify specific customers, why would using their zip code
not
be a good way to do this? What other input might the bank use instead?
