Understand that patterns of association can also be seen in bivariate categorical data by displaying frequencies and relative frequencies in a two‐way table. Interpret a two‐way table summarizing data on two categorical variables including using relative frequencies calculated for rows or columns to describe possible association between the two variables. Describe how changes in the value of one variable affect the values of the remaining variables in a relationship. Use similar triangles to explain why the slope m is the same between any two distinct points on a non‐vertical line in the coordinate plane. Know that straight lines are widely used to model relationships between two quantitative variables. For scatter plots that suggest a linear association, informally fit a straight line, and informally assess the model fit by judging the closeness of the data points to the line. Derive the equation y = mx for a line through the origin and the equation y = mx + b for a line intercepting the vertical axis at b. Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Identify and find measures of complementary and supplementary angles. Identify and find measures of angles when a transversal intersects parallel lines. Describe qualitatively the functional relationship between two quantities by analyzing a graph (e.g., where the function is increasing or decreasing, linear or nonlinear). Sketch a graph that exhibits the qualitative features of a function that has been described verbally. Translate, rotate, reflect or dilate figures in a coordinate plane.

Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g., π2). Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form x2 = p and x3 = p, where p is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that 2 is irrational. Graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the slope of the graph. Use square root and cube root symbols to represent solutions to equations of the form x2 = p and x3 = p, where p is a positive rational number. Evaluate square roots of small perfect squares and cube roots of small perfect cubes. Know that 2 is irrational. Compare two different proportional relationships represented in different ways. Calculate simple interest earned and account balances. Interpret scatter plots for bivariate measurement data. Describe patterns such as clustering, outliers, positive or negative association, linear association, and nonlinear association. Interpret scatter plots for bivariate measurement data.
