| Mathematics
The Massachusetts Mathematics Curriculum Framework envisions all students in the Commonwealth achieving mathematical competence through a strong mathematics program that emphasizes problem solving, communicating, reasoning and proof, making connections, and using representations. Acquiring such competence depends in large part on a clear, comprehensive, coherent, and developmentally appropriate set of standards to guide curriculum expectations.
Geometry: All Levels
The Massachusetts Mathematics Curriculum Framework provides learning standards for students in Geometry.
Geometry
The Geometry Unit includes Competencies/Objectives which focus on exploring geometric concepts from multiple perspectives. The Geometry Unit includes properties and construction of figures, proofs and theorems, history of geometry, transformations, logic, and problem solving.
Mathematics Processes
The Mathematics Processes Unit focuses on mathematical connections, communication, modeling, concepts and procedures.
Measurement
The Measurement Unit includes Competencies/Objectives which focus on measurement concepts, applications, and analysis. The Measurement Unit includes concepts of length, area, circumference, perimeter, volume, weight, formulas, distance, calendar, money, tools, accuracy, units, constructions, patterns and problem solving.
Real Numbers and the Coordinate Plane
The Real Numbers and the Coordinate Plane Unit includes graphing equations, and making connections between algebraic concepts and their geometric correspondences.
Trigonometry
The Trigonometry Unit includes studying triangles, trigonometric ratios, and triangle measurements, applying triangle properties, and solving right triangle problems.
