Objective 1.01
Apply various techniques and strategies to solve problems.
- Select or create an appropriate graphical display for a given set of data.
- Identify and represent patterns using appropriate algebraic notation.
- Select and apply appropriate formulas.
- Choose or create appropriate representations of two- and three-dimensional figures.
Goal 2
Geometry and Measurement - The learner will measure and apply geometric concepts to solve problems.
Objective 2.01
