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


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

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: Represent a system of linear equations as a single matrix equation in a vector variable.
problem_activity: Task
Suppose $f$ is a quadratic function given by the equation $f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c$
where $a,b,c$ are real numbers and $a$ is non-zero.
Explain why $f$ can have at most two roots; that is explain why there can be at most two distinct real numbers $r_1,r_2$ so that $f(r_1) = f(r_2) = 0$.
Give examples to show that it is possible for $f$ to have zero, one, or two
real roots.
