Jan 26, 2016 - In this topic, students extend their understanding of probability, building on work from Grade 11. The multiplication rule for independent events introduced in Grade 11 is generalized to a rule that...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students prove the law of cosines and use it to solve problems.

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students prove the formula Area = 1/2 bc sin(A) for a triangle. They reason geometrically and numerically to find the areas of various triangles.

Feb 09, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students construct a tangent line from a point outside a given circle to the circle.

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students will be able to give an informal argument using Cavalieri’s principle for the formula for the volume of a sphere and other solid figures.

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students derive the equations of ellipses given the foci, using the fact that the sum of distances from the foci is constant.

Jan 26, 2016 - Topic A brings students back to the study of complex roots of polynomial functions.  Students briefly review quadratic and cubic functions and then extend familiar polynomial identities to both...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students show that a quadrilateral is cyclic if and only if its opposite angles are supplementary. Students derive and apply the area of cyclic quadrilateral ABCD as 1/2 AB·CD·sin(w...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Given a circle, students find the equations of two lines tangent to the circle with specified slopes. Given a circle and a point outside the circle, students find the equation of the...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students write the equation for a circle in center-radius form, (x - a)2 (y - b)2 = r2 using the Pythagorean theorem or the distance formula. Students write the equation of a circle...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students find “missing lengths” in circle-secant or circle-secant-tangent diagrams.
