Praxis II 0014 math
some math terms for praxis II test 0014
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| three types of critical thinking | deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning, adaptive reasoning |
| deductive reasoning | conclusions are made based on prior knowledge, facts and truth. A step-by-step process of drawing conclusion. Only valid and reliable when all the premises are true and each step follows the previous logically. |
| example of deductive reasoning | You have lived in CA all of your life and have experienced many earthquakes. One day you are in a store and the shelves begin to shake and the ground buckles. You reason that there is an earthquake occurring. |
| inductive reasoning | Process of reasoning based on observations (not proof). Drawing conclusions based upon observations to develop hypotheses. |
| example of inductive reasoning | You observe in an ice cream shop one summer day that bubble gum flavored ice cream is ordered by children. You reason that children exclusively order bubble gum ice cream. |
| adaptive reasoning | The ability to justify strategies and to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of solutions proposed by others. |
| problem analysis | the ability to apply and adapt a variety of mathematical strategies to solve problems |
| five and ten anchors | useful relationships to know as 10 plays a large role in the numeration system |
| part-part-whole | learn to recognize that a number is made up of two or more parts, as this will help students construct and deconstruct process numbers |
| lowest common multiple (LCM) | the number that is a multiple of each of the two numbers being compared and is lower than all other multiples |
| educational supports that calculators provide | support counting (skip counting), promote basic fact memorization, aid learning of place value, assist in computation, show reasonableness of answers |
| Two requirements of a function (in a function machine) | 1. Consistency (every time the same input is plugged in, the same output is received), 2. one output (each input will produce only one possible output) |
| pattern recognition skills | finding, describing, explaining and predicting |
| chevron | a V |
| undecagon | 11 sided polygon |
| dodecogon | 12 sided polygon |
| tetrahedron | a 4 faced polyhedron |
| octahedron | an 8 face polyhedron |
| dodecahedron | a 12 faced polyhedron |
| icosahedron | an 18 faced polyhedron |
| translation | when a shape moves by sliding to another area of the plane |
| geometrical net | when a 3D shape is broken down to a 2D diagram |
| hectometer | 100 meters |
| dekameter | 10 meters |
| complimentary angle | when two angles are measured and the sum of their degrees is equal to 90 |
| supplementary angles | 2 angles whose sum is 180 |
