Outcomes

G.N.Q.A.1

Use units as a way to understand real-world problems.*

G.N.Q.A.1.B

Define and justify appropriate quantities within a context for the purpose of modeling.

G.CO.A.1

Describe transformations as functions that take points in the plane (pre-image) as inputs and give other points (image) as outputs. Compare transformations that preserve distance and angle measure to those that do not, by hand for basic transformations and using technology for more complex cases.

G.SRT.B.3

Use congruence and similarity criteria for triangles to solve problems and to justify relationships in geometric figures.

G.MP1

Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.

G.MP2

Reason abstractly and quantitatively.

G.MP3

Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.

G.MP4

Model with mathematics.

G.MP5

Use appropriate tools strategically.

G.MP6

Attend to precision.

G.MP7

Look for and make use of structure.

G.MP8

Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
