Accelerated CCGPS Coordinate Algebra/Analytic Geometry A:
The fundamental purpose of Accelerated CCGPS Coordinate Algebra/Analytic Geometry A is to formalize
and extend the mathematics that students learned in the middle grades. The critical areas, organized into
units, deepen and extend understanding of linear relationships, in part by contrasting them with
exponential phenomena, and in part by applying linear models to data that exhibit a linear trend.
Coordinate Algebra uses algebra to deepen and extend understanding of geometric knowledge from prior
grades. The next unit in the course ties together the algebraic and geometric ideas studied.
Transformations on the coordinate plane provide opportunities for the formal study of congruence and
similarity. The study of similarity leads to an understanding of right triangle trigonometry and connects to
quadratics through Pythagorean relationships. The study of circles uses similarity and congruence to
develop basic theorems relating circles and lines and rounds out the course. The Mathematical Practice
Standards apply throughout each course and, together with the content standards, prescribe that
students experience mathematics as a coherent, useful, and logical subject that makes use of their ability
to make sense of problem situations.
