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: Count to 100 by ones and by tens.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this Choral Count is to invite students to practice counting backward by 1 and notice patterns in the count. When students describe repeated patterns they see using the language of place value, they look for and make use of the base-ten structure of numbers and connect it to the counting sequence (MP6, MP7, MP8).
Launch
“Count backward by 1, starting at 70.”
Record as students count.
Stop counting and recording at 20.
Activity
“What patterns do you see?”
1-2 minutes: quiet think time
Record responses.
