Unit 1 · 9 skills

Geometry

Right-triangle problems on the job

Scale and proportion

3-D objects, views, and exploded diagrams

G4

G4
Draw and describe exploded views, component parts and scale diagrams of simple 3-D objects

Key ideas

  1. The Pythagorean theorem finds a missing side of a right triangle.

  2. A scale like 1:50 means one unit on the drawing is 50 in reality.

  3. Every 3-D object can be represented by its top, front, and side views.

  4. Sine, cosine, and tangent relate an angle to two sides (SOH-CAH-TOA).

  5. Multiply a drawing measurement by the scale to get the actual size.

Watch out for

  • Using the Pythagorean theorem on a non-right triangle.
  • Multiplying when you should divide (drawing to actual vs. actual to drawing).
  • Drawing a perspective sketch instead of a flat orthographic view.

Number

Puzzles and games: numerical reasoning

Renting, leasing, and buying

Investments and budgets

N3
Analyze an investment portfolio in terms of interest rate, rate of return, total return
N4
Solve problems that involve personal budgets
N4
Solve problems that involve personal budgets

Key ideas

  1. Many games have a repeatable strategy hidden in the numbers.

  2. Total cost adds up all payments and fees over the period.

  3. Rate of return = gain divided by amount invested, as a percent.

  4. Working backward from a winning position reveals the key moves.

  5. Leasing usually has lower payments but leaves you with nothing at the end.

Watch out for

  • Treating a solvable game as pure luck.
  • Comparing only the monthly payment, not the total.
  • Confusing the stated interest rate with the actual return.

The official wording · 9 outcomes

A2
Demonstrate an understanding of slope: • by solving problems
A3
Solve problems by applying proportional reasoning and unit analysis
A3
Solve problems by applying proportional reasoning and unit analysis

Key ideas

  1. Rate of change = change in output divided by change in input.

  2. Slope = rise (vertical change) over run (horizontal change).

  3. Slope on a graph is rise over run.

  4. A steeper line has a larger slope magnitude.

  5. Rearranging the formula solves for any one of its quantities.

Watch out for

  • Inverting rise and run when computing slope.
  • Putting run over rise instead of rise over run.
  • Forgetting to keep units consistent.

Unit 4 · 4 skills

Statistics

Bar graphs and histograms

Line graphs and circle graphs

S1
creating and interpreting graphs, including: • bar graphs
S1
creating and interpreting graphs, including: • histograms
S1
creating and interpreting graphs, including: • line graphs
S1
creating and interpreting graphs, including: • circle graphs

Key ideas

  1. A bar graph compares separate categories with bars of equal width.

  2. A line graph plots values over time and connects them.

  3. The bar height shows the value for each category.

  4. The direction of the line shows an increasing or decreasing trend.

  5. Gaps between bars signal that categories are distinct.

Watch out for

  • Using a bar graph for continuous ranges (that is a histogram).
  • Using a line graph for unrelated categories.
  • Reading the wrong axis for the category value.
