options: Geometry: students learn to classify geometric figures by their properties, and understand and compare the relationships between them. Students develop and use formulas to compute lengths, areas, and volumes, and they use transformations to generate new shapes and compare existing ones. Geometry can be studied with and without coordinates.

Functions: students learn to define, use, and evaluate functions to model relationships between quantities.

Counting & Cardinality: students learn to know number names and the count sequence, count to tell the number of objects, and compare numbers.

Statistics & Probability: students learn to analyze and produce data distributions, and build understanding of univariate and bivariate data. They learn to interpret data, make statistical inferences, justify conclusions, understand rules of probability, and use probability to make decisions.

Number & Operations - Fractions: students learn to understand fractions as numbers and may work with them using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Ratios & Proportional Relationships: students learn to recognize, describe, represent, and reason with ratios, rates, proportional relationships, and percent.

Operations & Algebra: students learn to solve problems using algebraic thinking and operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They may learn to identify and explain arithmetic patterns, evaluate or manipulate numerical expressions, and reason with equations and inequalities.

Measurement & Data: students learn to work with data and measure attributes such as time, money, length, area, and volume. They may learn to compare measurements to operations and convert between different units of measure.

Number & Operations in Base Ten: students learn to work with the base-ten system and build place value understanding.

Modeling: students learn to choose and use appropriate mathematics and statistics to analyze real-world empirical situations, improve decisions, and report on their conclusions and the reasoning behind them.

Number Systems and Quantity: students learn to understand the complex number system and reason quantitatively.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Your group should have a few copies of
Handout #2
and a set of cards from
Handout #1
.
Draw three cards and place them in the appropriate places on the Handout #2 form. This represents three conditions about a triangle. Once you’ve placed them on the form, do not change the order.
Determine if the set of conditions will make one unique triangle, more than one triangle, or no triangle.
If you can make one unique triangle, draw and label the triangle.
If more than one or no triangle can be made, be prepared to explain your reasoning.
Choose another three cards and repeat the activity.
Problem 2
Two triangles are described below. Determine if each description results in one unique triangle, more than one triangle, or no triangle. Explain your reasoning or draw images to support your conclusion.
a.   Triangle
$${EFG}$$
is an isosceles triangle with two angles measuring 35°. Side length
$${EG}$$
measures 10 cm.
b.   Triangle
$${{PQ}R}$$
is an isosceles triangle with
$${\angle P}$$
and
$${\angle Q}$$
measuring 22°. Side length
$${PQ}$$
measures 8 cm.
