ARM 10.54.4033. BENCHMARK FOR MATHEMATICS CONTENT STANDARD 3 UPON GRADUATION

(1) The benchmark for mathematics content standard 3 for a student upon graduation is the ability to: (a) formulate and evaluate conjectures about geometric objects and their properties, with and without technology, applying inductive reasoning when appropriate; (b) use spatial reasoning and geometric models to solve problems with and without technology in the contexts of art, science, and culture, including Montana American Indians; (c) identify, analyze, and use transformational, coordinate, and synthetic geometric approaches to solve problems; (d) determine measures of two- and three-dimensional objects and their elements using trigonometric ratios, proportionality, the Pythagorean Theorem, and angle relationships; and (e) establish the validity of geometric conjectures, using deductive reasoning, indirect proof, and counterexamples, and critique arguments made by others.
