ID | Standard | StudyPug Topic |
|---|---|---|
CC.HSN.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. |
CC.HSN.RN.A.2 | Rewrite expressions involving radicals and rational exponents using the properties of exponents. |
CC.HSF.IF.A.1 | Understand that a function from one set (called the domain) to another set (called the range) assigns to each element of the domain exactly one element of the range. If f is a function and x is an element of its domain, then f(x) denotes the output of f corresponding to the input x. The graph of f is the graph of the equation y = f(x). |
CC.HSF.IF.A.2 | Use function notation, evaluate functions for inputs in their domains, and interpret statements that use function notation in terms of a context. |
CC.HSF.IF.A.3 | Recognize that sequences are functions, sometimes defined recursively, whose domain is a subset of the integers. |
CC.HSF.IF.B.4 | For a function that models a relationship between two quantities, interpret key features of graphs and tables in terms of the quantities, and sketch graphs showing key features given a verbal description of the relationship. |
CC.HSF.IF.B.5 | Relate the domain of a function to its graph and, where applicable, to the quantitative relationship it describes. |

CC.HSF.IF.C.7 | Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases. |
CC.HSF.IF.C.8 | Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal and explain different properties of the function. |
CC.HSF.IF.C.9 | Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). |
CC.HSF.BF.A.1 | Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities. |
CC.HSF.BF.A.2 | Write arithmetic and geometric sequences both recursively and with an explicit formula, use them to model situations, and translate between the two forms. |
CC.HSF.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. |
CC.HSF.LE.A.1 | Distinguish between situations that can be modeled with linear functions and with exponential functions. |

CC.HSA.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). |
CC.HSA.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. |
CC.HSA.APR.C.4 | Prove polynomial identities and use them to describe numerical relationships. |
CC.HSA.APR.C.5 | Know and apply the Binomial Theorem for the expansion of (x + y)^n in powers of x and y for a positive integer n, where x and y are any numbers, with coefficients determined for example by Pascal's Triangle. |
CC.HSA.APR.D.6 | Rewrite simple rational expressions in different forms. |
CC.HSA.APR.D.7 | Understand that rational expressions form a system analogous to the rational numbers, closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division by a nonzero rational expression; add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational expressions. |
CC.HSA.REI.A.2 | Solve simple rational and radical equations in one variable, and give examples showing how extraneous solutions may arise. |
CC.HSF.LE.A.3 | Observe using graphs and tables that a quantity increasing exponentially eventually exceeds a quantity increasing linearly, quadratically, or (more generally) as a polynomial function. |
CC.HSF.LE.A.4 | For exponential models, express as a logarithm the solution to ab^ct = d where a, c, and d are numbers and the base b is 2, 10, or e; evaluate the logarithm using technology. |

CC.HSF.TF.A.3 | Use special triangles to determine geometrically the values of sine, cosine, tangent for π/3, π/4 and π/6, and use the unit circle to express the values of sine, cosine, and tangent for π–x, π+x, and 2π–x in terms of their values for x, where x is any real number. |
CC.HSF.TF.B.5 | Choose trigonometric functions to model periodic phenomena with specified amplitude, frequency, and midline. |

CC.HSF.TF.C.8 | Prove the Pythagorean identity sin^2(θ) + cos^2(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. |
CC.HSF.TF.C.9 | Prove the addition and subtraction formulas for sine, cosine, and tangent and use them to solve problems. |

CC.HSN.CN.A.1 | Know there is a complex number i such that i^2 = -1, and every complex number has the form a + bi with a and b real. |
CC.HSN.CN.A.2 | Use the relation i^2 = -1 and the commutative, associative, and distributive properties to add, subtract, and multiply complex numbers. |

CC.HSN.CN.C.7 | Solve quadratic equations with real coefficients that have complex solutions. |
CC.HSN.CN.C.8 | Extend polynomial identities to the complex numbers. |
CC.HSN.CN.C.9 | Know the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra; show that it is true for quadratic polynomials. |
CC.HSA.REI.C.8 | Represent a system of linear equations as a single matrix equation in a vector variable. |
CC.HSA.REI.C.9 | Find the inverse of a matrix if it exists and use it to solve systems of linear equations (using technology for matrices of dimension 3 × 3 or greater). |
CC.HSN.VM.C.6 | Use matrices to represent and manipulate data, e.g., to represent payoffs or incidence relationships in a network. |
CC.HSN.VM.C.7 | Multiply matrices by scalars to produce new matrices, e.g., as when all of the payoffs in a game are doubled. |
CC.HSN.VM.C.8 | Add, subtract, and multiply matrices of appropriate dimensions. |
CC.HSN.VM.C.9 | Understand that, unlike multiplication of numbers, matrix multiplication for square matrices is not a commutative operation, but still satisfies the associative and distributive properties. |
CC.HSN.VM.C.10 | Understand that the zero and identity matrices play a role in matrix addition and multiplication similar to the role of 0 and 1 in the real numbers. The determinant of a square matrix is nonzero if and only if the matrix has a multiplicative inverse. |

CC.HSG.GPE.A.3 | Derive the equations of ellipses and hyperbolas given the foci, using the fact that the sum or difference of distances from the foci is constant. |
CC.HSS.ID.A.4 | Use the mean and standard deviation of a data set to fit it to a normal distribution and to estimate population percentages. Recognize that there are data sets for which such a procedure is not appropriate. Use calculators, spreadsheets, and tables to estimate areas under the normal curve. |
CC.HSS.ID.B.5 | Summarize categorical data for two categories in two-way frequency tables. Interpret relative frequencies in the context of the data (including joint, marginal, and conditional relative frequencies). Recognize possible associations and trends in the data. |
CC.HSS.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"). |
CC.HSS.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. |
CC.HSS.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. |
CC.HSS.CP.B.9 | Use permutations and combinations to compute probabilities of compound events and solve problems. |
