Example 1:
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.

Example 2:
Problem/activity:
Task
Solve the quadratic equation
$$ x^2 = (2x - 9)^2 $$
using as many different methods as possible.


Concept/skill: 
Solve quadratic equations in one variable.

Answer: 
Yes. This task shows one quadratic equation with one variable, x.

Example 3:
Problem/activity:
Task
Suppose $A$ is an angle with vertex $P$, as pictured below:
[IMG]
Draw a circle with center $P$ and with  radius $r \gt 0$.  Explain why the circle
meets each ray of angle $A$ in a single point.  Label these points $Q$ and $R$ respectively.
Draw circles with centers $Q$ and $R$ respectively and radius $r$.  These circles meet at $P$ and a second point to be labelled $B$.
Show that ray $\overrightarrow{PB}$  bisects angle $P$.


Concept/skill: 
Construct a tangent line from a point outside a given circle to the circle.

Answer: 
No. This task does not involve drawing lines that are tangent to circles. The only line that may be drawn is the ray between points P and B.

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

standard_description: Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual model.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Mr. Wynn now wants to cover a part of the gym with butcher paper to work on a large painting. He covers a section of the gym that is 30 feet long and 35 feet wide. Then he realizes he needs a bit more space for the painting and adds a section of butcher paper that is 4 feet long and 35 feet wide.
a.   How many square feet of butcher paper did Mr. Wynn use for his painting?
b.   What is the total length and width of Mr. Wynn’s painting?
Problem 2
a.   Label the area model to represent 31 × 23 and to find that product.
Decompose each number into its base-ten units (tens and ones) and write them in the boxes on each side of the rectangle.
[IMG]
Label regions A, B, C, and D with their areas. Show your reasoning.
Find the product that the area model represents. Show your reasoning.
b.   Here is one way to calculate 31 × 23. Each number with a box gives the area of one region in the area model.
[IMG]
In the boxes next to each number, write the letter of the corresponding region.
There is a 1 above the hundreds digit in the sum. What does that 1 represent?
Problem 3
Estimate each product. Then use any method to solve.
a.
$$26\times37$$
b.
$$81\times52$$
c.
$$68\times73$$
