MATH30B-L043 - Sum and difference identities; assess a probability claim; critique P
MATH30B is delivery. Official identities remain 30-1, 30-2, 30-3. 90 combined-classroom lessons (~18 weeks × 5). Braiding adjusts the shared calendar; it does not delete strand outcomes. 10-session bootcamp overlays weeks 1-2 only.

- CROSS-STRAND EXPOSURE ≠ mastery - hearing another tray is logged as EXPOSURE, never as an SO tick, never as a silent enrolment change.
ALL STRANDS launch (~10-14 min)
Restricted to sin, cos, tan for 30-1 sum/difference.
Clock ~75 min unless the school uses 60; cut the workshop block first, never the strand exit ticket. Class C parallel workshops are the default when one strand is on exclusive work.
Official outcomes (REQUIRED on home strand)
| Strand | Official ID | Role today |
|---|---|---|
| 30-1 | MATH30-1-TRIGONOM-06-006 | REQUIRED - Prove trigonometric identities, using: • reciprocal identities • quotient identities • Pythagorean identities • sum or difference identities (restricted to sine, cosine and tangent |
| 30-2 | MATH30-2-LOGICALR-01-003 | REQUIRED - Interpret and assess the validity of odds and probability statements |
| 30-3 | MATH30-3-ALGEBRA-01-011 | REQUIRED - Analyze and interpret problems that involve probability |
30-1 workshop - 30-1 REQUIRED
Clock: ~22-28 min after launch (cut workshop before cutting the strand exit ticket). Learners on this tray stay on 30-1.
MATH30-1-TRIGONOM-06-006
Official text: Prove trigonometric identities, using: • reciprocal identities • quotient identities • Pythagorean identities • sum or difference identities (restricted to sine, cosine and tangent) • double-angle identities (restricted to sine, cosine and tangent)
Worked example (unique to this hour, this strand, this SO): Prove (1 − cos²θ)/sin θ = sin θ for sin θ ≠ 0 using Pythagorean and reciprocal identities. Second item (sum): expand sin(π/6 + θ) using the sum identity (sin, cos, tan only). Third (double-angle): rewrite sin(2θ) if sin θ = 4/3 in QI.
| Level | Prompt (inside the home strand) |
|---|---|
| FOUNDATION | Verify 1+tan²θ=sec²θ at 45°. |
| CORE | Prove a reciprocal/quotient identity. |
| PROFICIENT | Sum or double-angle proof with restrictions. |
| ADVANCED | Reject an illegal step in a near-proof. |
Diagram: Timing: after retrieval, before independent practice. Do not open the diagram during the first retrieval prompt. Identity map: reciprocal / quotient / Pythagorean / sum-diff / double-angle.
Independent practice: a new instance of today’s SO(s) with different numbers than the worked example. Two sentences on reasonableness.
Wrong-answer repair (do not praise):
30-1SO 006: Moving from one side to the other by adding the same expression without justification, or using sine law as an “identity.” Repair: name the first wrong line, replace it, and re-complete the CORE tray item. Do not praise the wrong line.
30-2 workshop - 30-2 REQUIRED
Clock: ~22-28 min after launch (cut workshop before cutting the strand exit ticket). Learners on this tray stay on 30-2.
MATH30-2-LOGICALR-01-003
Official text: Interpret and assess the validity of odds and probability statements
Worked example (unique to this hour, this strand, this SO): A claim: “odds of a false positive are 1:6 so the probability is 1/6.” Convert odds a:b to P=a/(a+b). Assess validity of the original sentence.
| Level | Prompt (inside the home strand) |
|---|---|
| FOUNDATION | Odds 1:1 as a fair coin in words. |
| CORE | Convert odds to P. |
| PROFICIENT | Assess a media claim. |
| ADVANCED | Odds against vs odds in favour. |
Diagram: Timing: after retrieval, before independent practice. Do not open the diagram during the first retrieval prompt. Odds-versus-probability two-column table.
Independent practice: a new instance of today’s SO(s) with different numbers than the worked example. Two sentences on reasonableness.
Wrong-answer repair (do not praise):
30-2SO 003: Equating odds a:b with probability a/b. Repair: name the first wrong line, replace it, and re-complete the CORE tray item. Do not praise the wrong line.
30-3 workshop - 30-3 REQUIRED
Clock: ~22-28 min after launch (cut workshop before cutting the strand exit ticket). Learners on this tray stay on 30-3.
MATH30-3-ALGEBRA-01-011
Official text: Analyze and interpret problems that involve probability
Worked example (unique to this hour, this strand, this SO): A poster: “There is a 90% chance the water is safe.” Critique: 90% of what? Sample size? Given P(fail)=3/100, interpret in words. Do not compute nPr as evidence for this SO.
| Level | Prompt (inside the home strand) |
|---|---|
| FOUNDATION | Likely/unlikely from a given P. |
| CORE | Interpret a given P in the story. |
| PROFICIENT | Critique a claim. |
| ADVANCED | Sample-space talk without nPr. |
Diagram: Timing: after retrieval, before independent practice. Do not open the diagram during the first retrieval prompt. Probability-statement cards (interpret, do not run nPr).
Independent practice: a new instance of today’s SO(s) with different numbers than the worked example. Two sentences on reasonableness.
Wrong-answer repair (do not praise):
30-3SO 011: Computing nPr or a 30-1 counting proof as if it were 011. Repair: name the first wrong line, replace it, and re-complete the CORE tray item. Do not praise the wrong line.
CROSS-STRAND EXPOSURE ≠ mastery
- CROSS-STRAND EXPOSURE ≠ mastery. Log D items. Do not tick another strand’s SO.
- AI Tutor must not treat an exposure card as proficiency.
- 30-3 must not receive 30-1 identity proofs as if they were sine/cosine law.
Project or clean math
Project overlay today: none. Use a clean math prompt on the home-strand tray. Do not force Sustainable Community Water & Hygiene onto work that is not genuinely that mathematics.
AI Tutor
- Load the authorized home strand only: MAT3791 (Mathematics 30-1) or MAT3792 (Mathematics 30-2) or MAT3793 (Mathematics 30-3) from the authorized profile.
- Never silent-switch a struggling 30-1 learner into 30-2/30-3 banks (or the reverse) to “make it easier.”
- Serve today’s home-strand SOs. Exposure cards are read-only.
- Never dump diploma keys or released exam wording. Original items only.
- Wrong answers: name the error and repair; do not praise.
Human-tutor handoff
Call a human tutor when: the learner cannot complete CORE after two documented repairs; an identity proof (30-1 006) is stuck after the identity map; a 30-2 017 source is unsafe or empty; a 30-3 vehicle/business number is being faked to match a hoped-for answer; distress, disclosure, or a request to change official enrolment. Enrolment changes are an office/PASI process, not a tutor action.
Diagram / whiteboard
Approved starter math30-quadratic-shift. Strand workshops may add axes/tables. Never praise a translated parabola as a circle.
Strand exit ticket (~8-12 min)
Collect only the home-strand row. Exposure ≠ mastery. Lesson MATH30B-L043.

Second item (sum): expand sin(π/6 + θ) using the sum identity (sin, cos, tan only). Third (double-angle): rewrite sin(2θ) if s… FOUNDATION alternate: Verify 1+tan²θ=sec²θ at 45°. Do not submit another strand’s ticket as 30-1 mastery. |
| 30-2 | MATH30-2-LOGICALR-01-003 | CORE exit: A claim: “odds of a false positive are 1:6 so the probability is 1/6.” Convert odds a:b to P=a/(a+b). Assess validity of the original sentence. FOUNDATION alternate: Odds 1:1 as a fair coin in words. Do not submit another strand’s ticket as 30-2 mastery. |
| 30-3 | MATH30-3-ALGEBRA-01-011 | CORE exit: A poster: “There is a 90% chance the water is safe.” Critique: 90% of what? Sample size? Given P(fail)=3/100, interpret in words. Do not compute nPr as evidence for this SO. FOUNDATION alternate: Likely/unlikely from a given P. Do not submit another strand’s ticket as 30-3 mastery. |
