Providence Public Schools Quadratic Functions: Complex Numbers (12-14 days) Algebra II, Quarter 1, Unit 1.3 Version 5 Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice 2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Mathematically proficient students make sense of quantities and their relationships in problem situations. They bring two complementary abilities to bear on problems involving quantitative relationships: the ability to decontextualize—to abstract a given situation and represent it symbolically and manipulate the representing symbols as if they have a life of their own, without necessarily attending to their referents—and the ability to contextualize, to pause as needed during the manipulation process in order to probe into the referents for the symbols involved. Quantitative reasoning entails habits of creating a coherent representation of the problem at hand; considering the units involved; attending to the meaning of quantities, not just how to compute them; and knowing and flexibly using different properties of operations and objects. 5 Use appropriate tools strategically. Mathematically proficient students consider the available tools when solving a mathematical problem. These tools might include pencil and paper, concrete models, a ruler, a protractor, a calculator, a spreadsheet, a computer algebra system, a statistical package, or dynamic geometry software. Proficient students are sufficiently familiar with tools appropriate for their grade or course to make sound decisions about when each of these tools might be helpful, recognizing both the insight to be gained and their limitations. For example, mathematically proficient high school students analyze graphs of functions and solutions generated using a graphing calculator. They detect possible errors by strategically using estimation and other mathematical knowledge. When making mathematical models, they know that technology can enable them to visualize the results of varying assumptions, explore consequences, and compare predictions with data. Mathematically proficient students at various grade levels are able to identify relevant external mathematical resources, such as digital content located on a website, and use them to pose or solve problems. They are able to use technological tools to explore and deepen their understanding of concepts. 6 Attend to precision. Mathematically proficient students try to communicate precisely to others. They try to use clear definitions in discussion with others and in their own reasoning. They state the meaning of the symbols they choose, including using the equal sign consistently and appropriately. They are careful about specifying units of measure, and labeling axes to clarify the correspondence with quantities in a problem. They calculate accurately and efficiently, express numerical answers with a degree of precision appropriate for the problem context. In the elementary grades, students give carefully formulated explanations to each other. By the time they reach high school they have learned to examine claims and make explicit use of definitions. Providence Public Schools D-19 Algebra II, Quarter 1, Unit 1.3 Quadratic Function: Complex Numbers (12-14 days) Version 5 7 Look for and make use of structure. Mathematically proficient students look closely to discern a pattern or structure. Young students, for example, might notice that three and seven more is the same amount as seven and three more, or they may sort a collection of shapes according to how many sides the shapes have. Later, students will see 7 × 8 equals the well remembered 7 × 5 + 7 × 3, in preparation for learning about the distributive property. In the expression x2 + 9x + 14, older students can see the 14 as 2 × 7 and the 9 as 2 + 7. They recognize the significance of an existing line in a geometric figure and can use the strategy of drawing an auxiliary line for solving problems. They also can step back for an overview and shift perspective. They can see complicated things, such as some algebraic expressions, as single objects or as being composed of several objects. For example, they can see 5 – 3(x – y)2 as 5 minus a positive number times a square and use that to realize that its value cannot be more than 5 for any real numbers x and y. Clarifying the Standards Prior Learning Starting in Grade 3, students applied properties of operations to multiply and divide. In Grade 8, students learned to solve an equation of the form x2 = p, and they learned that some square roots of positive numbers are irrational. In Algebra I, students learned to factor quadratic expressions to reveal zeros, and they solved quadratic equations with real roots. In grade 6, students wrote, interpreted, and used expressions and equations. In grade 7, students used properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. They also solved real-life problems using numerical and algebraic expressions and equations and used properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. Grade 8 students worked with functions and learned that functions are a set of ordered pairs. Students in Algebra I used technology to graph quadratic functions. They identified the key features of these functions from tables and graphs. Students analyzed graphs of quadratic functions that modeled real-world problems, and they identified appropriate domains of functions in relation to their graphs. Algebra 1 was the introduction to factoring quadratics and completing the square. Quadratic expressions and functions were considered critical areas in Algebra I. Students worked intensively to master quadratic functions, both from an algebraic and formal perspective as well as in the context of modeling. The work that students did with quadratic functions was connected with and reinforced their work in quadratic equations, polynomial arithmetic and seeing structure in expressions. Students learned how to reexpress quadratic functions in equivalent forms to reveal different properties. They compared the properties of quadratic functions from multiple representations. Students wrote a quadratic function that described a quantitative relationship by determining an explicit expression, a recursive process, or steps for calculation. In Geometry, students used quadratic equations to solve problems involving area and special right triangles. Current Learning D-20 Providence Public Schools Quadratic Functions: Complex Numbers (12-14 days) Algebra II, Quarter 1, Unit 1.3 Version 5 The study of functions is a critical area for Algebra II students. In this unit, students study quadratic functions and also compare quadratic and linear. Students learn to understand the graph of a quadratic function by interpreting various forms of quadratic expressions. In particular, they identify the real solutions of a quadratic equation as the zeros of a related quadratic function. Algebra II students solve quadratic equations in one variable. In this unit, students also develop conceptual understanding of the meaning of i and perform arithmetic operations with complex numbers. Students become fluent with solving quadratic functions by completing the square and factoring quadratics with complex numbers. They recognize when the quadratic formula gives complex solutions. They explain why the x-coordinates of the intersection points of two graphs are the solutions to the equation. Students use technology to graph two functions, make tables of values, and find successive approximations. They also interpret solutions as viable or nonviable options in a modeling context. According to the PARCC Model Content Frameworks for Algebra 2, A-RE1.1 is classified as major content for Algebra 2. N-Q.2, A-REI.4b, F-IF.9 and A-CED.1 are defined as supporting standards. N-CN.1, N-CN.2, N-CN.7, and A-REI.7 are classified as additional standards for Algebra 2. Future Learning In Precalculus, students will perform arithmetic operations with complex numbers. They will also represent complex numbers and their operations on the complex plane. Students will also graph rational functions, identify zeros and asymptotes when suitable factorizations are available, and show end behavior. Mastery of these concepts will be required in Precalculus and AP Calculus. Additional Findings According to Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, high school students should use real numbers and learn enough about complex numbers to interpret them as solutions to quadratic equations. They should fully understand the concept of a number system, how different numbers are related, and whether the properties in one system hold to another (pp. 291–294). Electronic computation technologies provide opportunities for students to work on realistic problems and perform difficult computations. According to Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, students should be able to solve problems involving complex numbers using a pencil in some cases and technology in all cases (p. 395). Assessment When constructing an end-of-unit assessment, be aware that the assessment should measure your students’ understanding of the big ideas indicated within the standards. The CCSS for Mathematical Providence Public Schools D-21 Algebra II, Quarter 1, Unit 1.3 Quadratic Function: Complex Numbers (12-14 days) Version 5 Content and the CCSS for Mathematical Practice should be considered when designing assessments. Standards-based mathematics assessment items should vary in difficulty, content, and type. The assessment should comprise a mix of items, which could include multiple choice items, short and extended response items, and performance-based tasks. When creating your assessment, you should be mindful when an item could be differentiated to address the needs of students in your class. The mathematical concepts below are not a prioritized list of assessment items, and your assessment is not limited to these concepts. However, care should be given to assess the skills the students have developed within this unit. The assessment should provide you with credible evidence as to your students’ attainment of the mathematics within the unit. Demonstrate knowledge of the meaning of complex numbers and their mathematical importance. Simplify expressions that involve square roots of negative numbers.

Students must have ample opportunity to explore imaginary numbers by performing arithmetic operations with the powers and other complex forms of i. The variable-like property of i when adding and subtracting complex numbers supports its “unknown” quality, but, unlike most variables, i is clearly defined. This concept is fairly abstract and difficult for students to grasp. Have students make a graphic organizer such as a foldable to organize their learning of the powers of i. Students can use an identifying similarities and differences strategy to represent the cyclical nature of imaginary numbers. They can make a comparison matrix to show how multiplying 1 by itself x number of times gives a pattern: i0 D-24 1 Providence Public Schools Quadratic Functions: Complex Numbers (12-14 days) Algebra II, Quarter 1, Unit 1.3 Version 5 i1 i i2 –1 i3 –i i4 1 i5 i The Complex Numbers (ID: 10887) activity on education.ti.com provides the opportunity for students to incorporate technology into their study of operations with imaginary numbers. However, be sure to limit students to adding, subtracting, and multiplying complex numbers. Use scaffolding techniques, additional examples, and differentiated instructional guidelines as suggested by the Glencoe resource in section 5-1 and 5-2. These sections are to be used to activate prior knowledge. Living word walls will assist all students in developing content language. Word walls should be visible to all students, focus on the current unit’s vocabulary, both new and reinforced, and have pictures, examples, and/or diagrams to accompany the definitions. In section 10-7 focus on the sections involving linear-quadratic systems. The 5-minute check transparencies can be used as a cue, questions, and advance organizers strategy as students will be activating prior knowledge. Some 5-minute checks may take longer than the allotted time, so consider choosing only problems that activate prior knowledge and use the rest for differentiation, to formatively assess student learning, as an exit ticket, or assigning for homework. For planning considerations read through the teacher edition for suggestions about scaffolding techniques, using additional examples, and differentiated instructional guidelines as suggested by the Glencoe resource. In the classroom, have a blog where students can write entries, explaining how they decide when to use each of the different methods for solving systems of equations. One thing they can do is write a pros and cons list for each method. See Study Notebook Chapter 5 graphic organizer (pp. 73 and 77) in the Teacher Edition. Have students work in pairs for graphing systems of equations, taking turns between graphing the equation and checking the solution set. Discuss with students when a system of equations has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. Write examples of systems on the board and have students answer: one, none, or infinite solutions. The Graphing Technology Lab: Systems of Linear and Quadratic Equations may be used to deepen content knowledge of linear-quadratic systems using technology.

Graphing technology will assist students with modeling real-world problems involving systems of equations and inequalities as well as identifying solution(s) to system of equations. The Mathematics Assessment Project, also known as Math Shell, provides a variety of projects for formative and summative assessment that may help make knowledge and reasoning visible to students. These CCSSM aligned resources include a variety of lessons focused on concept development and problem solving. It also includes numerous tasks designed for expert, apprentice and novice learners. The Forming Quadratics lesson is intended to help teachers assess how well students are able to understand what the different algebraic forms of a quadratic function reveal about the properties of its graphical representation. In particular, the lesson will help you identify and help students who have the following difficulties: Understanding how the factored form of the function can identify a graph’s roots. Understanding how the completed square form of the function can identify a graph’s maximum or minimum point. Understanding how the standard form of the function can identify a graph’s intercept. Use the link below to access detailed information for the Forming Quadratics lesson: http://map.mathshell.org/materials/lessons.php?taskid=224&subpage=concept. The lesson resources are also provided in the supplementary materials section of this curriculum frameworks binder. Incorporate the Essential Questions as part of the daily lesson. Options include using them as a “do now” to activate prior knowledge of the previous day’s lesson, using them as an exit ticket by having students respond to it and post it, or hand it in as they exit the classroom, or using them as other formative assessments. Essential questions should be included in the unit assessment.
