Every skill in the course, numbered by unit.

Unit 1 · 4 skills

Measurement

Rates and Scale

The official wording · 4 outcomes
1.1
Solve problems that involve the application of rates.
1.2
Solve problems that involve scale diagrams, using proportional reasoning.
1.3
Demonstrate an understanding of the relationships among scale factors, areas, surface areas, and volumes of similar 2-D shapes and 3-D objects.
1.4
Demonstrate an understanding of the relationships among scale factors, areas, surface areas, and volumes of similar 2-D shapes and 3-D objects.

Key ideas

  1. A rate compares two quantities with different units, like km/h.

  2. The slope of a rate graph is the rate itself.

  3. A scale factor relates a diagram's size to the real object.

  4. Proportional reasoning scales any dimension up or down.

  5. Area scales by the square of the scale factor.

Watch out for

  • Comparing rates with different units without converting.
  • Reading the rate off a graph with the axes swapped.
  • Inverting the scale factor.

Unit 2 · 4 skills

Geometry

Angles, Triangles, and the Sine and Cosine Laws

The official wording · 4 outcomes
2.1
Derive proofs that involve the properties of angles and triangles.
2.2
Solve problems that involve the properties of angles and triangles.
2.3
Solve problems that involve the cosine law and the sine law, including the ambiguous case.
2.4
Solve problems that involve the cosine law and the sine law, including the ambiguous case.

Key ideas

  1. Inductive reasoning spots a pattern; deductive reasoning proves it always holds.

  2. The interior angles of a triangle sum to 180 degrees.

  3. Angle relationships at a transversal find unknown angles.

  4. Triangle properties constrain the remaining angles.

  5. The cosine law relates all three sides and one angle.

Watch out for

  • Treating a single example as a proof.
  • Assuming parallel-line rules when lines are not parallel.
  • Applying transversal rules to non-parallel lines.

Unit 3 · 2 skills

Logical Reasoning

Reasoning, Proof, and Puzzles

The official wording · 2 outcomes
3.1
Analyze and prove conjectures, using inductive and deductive reasoning, to solve problems.
3.2
Analyze puzzles and games that involve spatial reasoning, using problem-solving strategies.

Key ideas

  1. Inductive reasoning proposes a conjecture from patterns.

  2. A single counter-example disproves a conjecture.

  3. A strategy can be justified with a reasoning chain, not just tried.

  4. Analyzing errors sharpens the strategy.

Watch out for

  • Believing many examples prove a conjecture.
  • Overlooking a counter-example.
  • Describing a strategy without justifying why it works.

Unit 4 · 3 skills

Statistics

Normal Distribution and Statistical Inference

The official wording · 3 outcomes
4.1
Demonstrate an understanding of normal distribution, including standard deviation
4.2
Demonstrate an understanding of normal distribution, including z-scores
4.3
Interpret statistical data, using confidence intervals confidence levels margin of error

Key ideas

  1. Standard deviation measures the spread of data around the mean.

  2. A normal curve is symmetric, with mean, median, and mode at the centre.

  3. A z-score tells how many standard deviations a value is from the mean.

  4. z = (value - mean) divided by the standard deviation.

  5. A margin of error gives a range around a sample estimate.

Watch out for

  • Confusing standard deviation with the mean.
  • Assuming any spread-out data is normal.
  • Forgetting to divide by the standard deviation.

Unit 5 · 3 skills

Relations and Functions

Inequalities and Quadratic Models

  • Systems of linear inequalities and linear programming

    I can model and solve a system of linear inequalities and optimize.

  • Vertex and intercepts of a quadratic model

    I can find the vertex and intercepts of a quadratic model with technology.

  • Domain, range, and symmetry of a quadratic model

    I can describe a quadratic model's domain, range, and symmetry and use it.

The official wording · 3 outcomes
5.1
Model and solve problems that involve systems of linear inequalities in two variables.
5.2
Demonstrate an understanding of the characteristics of quadratic functions, including vertex intercepts
5.3
Demonstrate an understanding of the characteristics of quadratic functions, including domain and range axis of symmetry

Key ideas

  1. Each inequality shades a half-plane; the overlap is the feasible region.

  2. Linear programming optimizes an objective at a vertex of the feasible region.

  3. The vertex is the maximum or minimum point of a parabola.

  4. The x-intercepts are the zeros of the function and roots of the equation.

  5. The axis of symmetry passes vertically through the vertex.

Watch out for

  • Shading the wrong side of a boundary line.
  • Using a solid line where a broken line is needed.
  • Confusing the vertex with an intercept.

Unit 6 · 3 skills

Mathematics Research Project

Mathematics Research Project

The official wording · 3 outcomes
6.1
Research and give a presentation on a historical event or an area of interest that involves mathematics.
6.2
Research and give a presentation on a historical event or an area of interest that involves mathematics.
6.3
Research and give a presentation on a historical event or an area of interest that involves mathematics.

Key ideas

  1. A good inquiry question is focused and connects to real mathematics.

  2. Primary data is collected first-hand; secondary data comes from existing sources.

  3. Sources should be checked for bias, reliability, and relevance.

  4. Statistical methods help interpret the collected data.

  5. A clear presentation walks the audience from question to evidence to conclusion.

Watch out for

  • Picking a topic too broad to research.
  • Confusing primary and secondary data.
  • Accepting a source without checking for bias.
