| NUMBER AND QUANTITY | |
| The Real Number System | |
| Extend the properties of exponents to rational exponents | |
| N.RN.A.1 | Explain how the definition of the meaning of rational exponents follows from extending the properties of integer exponents to those values, allowing for a notation for radicals in terms of rational exponents. For example, we define 51/3 to be the cube root of 5 because we want (51/3)3 = 5(1/3)3 to hold, so (51/3)3 must equal 5. |
| N.RN.A.2 | Rewrite expressions involving radicals and rational exponents using the properties of exponents. Includes expressions with variable factors, such as the cubic root of 27x5y3. |
| Quantities | |

| The Complex Number System | |
| Perform arithmetic operations with complex numbers | |
| N.CN.A.1 | Know there is a complex number i such thati2 = –1, and every complex number has the form a + bi with a and b real. |
| N.CN.A.2 | Use the relation i2 = –1 and the commutative, associative, and distributive properties to add, subtract, and multiply complex numbers. |

| A.SSE.B.4 | Derive the formula for the sum of a finite geometric series (when the common ratio is not 1), and use the formula to solve problems. For example, calculate mortgage payments. Includes summation notation. |
| Arithmetic with Polynomials & Rational Expressions | |
| Understand the relationship between zeros and factors of polynomials | |
| A.APR.B.2 | Know and apply the Remainder Theorem: For a polynomial p(x) and a number a, the remainder on division by x – a is p(a), so p(a) = 0 if and only if (x – a) is a factor of p(x). |
| A.APR.B.3 | Identify zeros of polynomials when suitable factorizations are available, and use the zeros to construct a rough graph of the function defined by the polynomial. |

| Rewrite rational expressions | |
| A.APR.D.6 | Rewrite simple rational expressions in different forms; write a(x)/b(x) in the form q(x) + r(x)/b(x), where a(x), b(x), q(x), and r(x) are polynomials with the degree of r(x) less than the degree of b(x), using inspection, long division, or, for the more complicated examples, a computer algebra system. |

| A.REI.D.11 | Explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = f(x) and y = g(x) intersect are the solutions of the equation f(x) = g(x); find the solutions approximately, e.g., using technology to graph the functions, make tables of values, or find successive approximations.

| Build new functions from existing functions | |
| F.BF.B.3 | Identify the effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by f(x) + k, k f(x), f(kx), and f(x + k) for specific values of k (both positive and negative); find the value of k given the graphs. Experiment with cases and illustrate an explanation of the effects on the graph using technology.

| Extend the domain of trigonometric functions using the unit circle | |
| F.TF.A.1 | Understand radian measure of an angle as the length of the arc on the unit circle subtended by the angle. |
| F.TF.A.2 | Explain how the unit circle in the coordinate plane enables the extension of trigonometric functions to all real numbers, interpreted as radian measures of angles traversed counterclockwise around the unit circle (includes the reciprocal trigonometric functions). |
| F.TF.B.5 | Choose trigonometric functions to model periodic phenomena with specified amplitude, frequency, and midline. |
| F.TF.C.8 | Prove the Pythagorean identity sin2(θ) + cos2(θ) = 1 and use it to find sin(θ), cos(θ), or tan(θ) given sin(θ), cos(θ), or tan(θ) and the quadrant of the angle. |

| Making Inferences & Justifying Conclusions | |
| Understand and evaluate random processes underlying statistical experiments | |
| S.IC.A.1 | Understand statistics as a process for making inferences about population parameters based on a random sample from that population. |
| S.IC.A.2 | Decide if a specified model is consistent with results from a given data-generating process, e.g., using simulation.For example, a model says a spinning coin falls heads up with probability 0.5. Would a result of 5 tails in a row cause you to question the model? |
| Make inferences and justify conclusions from sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies | |
| S.IC.B.3 | Recognize the purposes of and differences among sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies; explain how randomization relates to each. |

| S.CP.A.1 | Describe events as subsets of a sample space (the set of outcomes) using characteristics (or categories) of the outcomes, or as unions, intersections, or complements of other events (“or,” “and,” “not”). |
| S.CP.A.2 | Understand that two events A and B are independent if the probability of A and B occurring together is the product of their probabilities, and use this characterization to determine if they are independent. |
| S.CP.A.3 | Understand the conditional probability of A given B as P(A and B)/P(B), and interpret independence of A and B as saying that the conditional probability of A given B is the same as the probability of A, and the conditional probability of B given A is the same as the probability of B. |
| S.CP.A.4 | Construct and interpret two-way frequency tables of data when two categories are associated with each object being classified. Use the two-way table as a sample space to decide if events are independent and to approximate conditional probabilities.For example, collect data from a random sample of students in your school on their favorite subject among math, science, and English. Estimate the probability that a randomly selected student from your school will favor science given that the student is in tenth grade. Do the same for other subjects and compare the results. |
| S.CP.A.5 | Recognize and explain the concepts of conditional probability and independence in everyday language and everyday situations. For example, compare the chance of having lung cancer if you are a smoker with the chance of being a smoker if you have lung cancer. |
