Part of: [Arkansas: Mathematics](https://ai.page/roadmap/ar.md)

Goal: Arkansas academic standards: Mathematics, Grade 8

## 1. Grade 8 · Understand theoretical and experimental probability for compound experiments using organized lists, tables, or tree diagrams.

- [Tree diagrams](https://ai.page/c/tree-diagrams/index.md): Generate theoretical sample spaces for single and combined events using listing, tables, and tree diagrams, and calculate theoretical probabilities as the number of favourable outcomes divided by the total number of equally likely outcomes

## 2. Grade 8 · Investigate patterns of association to bivariate data.

- [Pictograms and tally charts (age 11+)](https://ai.page/c/pictograms-and-tally-charts-age-11/index.md): Construct and interpret frequency tables, bar charts, pie charts, pictograms, and vertical line charts for both categorical and grouped numerical data, choosing appropriate representations for the data type
- [Scatter Graphs & Correlation](https://ai.page/c/scatter-graphs-and-correlation/index.md): Describe simple mathematical relationships between two variables using scatter graphs, identify positive, negative, or no correlation, and use a line of best fit to make predictions
- [Scatter Graphs](https://ai.page/c/scatter-graphs/index.md): Plot bivariate data on a scatter graph with correctly labelled axes and appropriate scales; describe the correlation (positive, negative, none) and draw an estimated line of best fit where appropriate

## 3. Grade 8 · Use concrete models, diagrams, or geometry to understand congruence and similarity.

- [Coordinate Transformations](https://ai.page/c/coordinate-transformations/index.md): Identify properties of translations, rotations, and reflections; describe and perform these transformations on given figures, and understand that the image is congruent to the original

## 4. Grade 8 · Explore right triangles and apply the Pythagorean Theorem.

- [Types of angles (age 13+)](https://ai.page/c/types-of-angles-age-13/index.md): Apply Pythagoras’ Theorem (a² + b² = c²) to calculate unknown side lengths in right-angled triangles, including in real-world and coordinate-geometry contexts

## 5. Grade 8 · Describe cross sections of three-dimensional figures.

- [3-D shapes (age 11+)](https://ai.page/c/3-d-shapes-age-11/index.md): Use the properties of faces, surfaces, edges, and vertices of 3-D shapes (cubes, cuboids, prisms, cylinders, pyramids, cones, and spheres) to solve problems, including visualising cross-sections

## 6. Grade 8 · Solve problems involving area, volume, and surface area.

- [Angles in triangles (age 11+)](https://ai.page/c/angles-in-triangles-age-11/index.md): Derive and apply formulae for the area of triangles, parallelograms, and trapezia, and for the volume of cuboids and other prisms (including cylinders), connecting each formula to its geometric reasoning

## 7. Grade 8 · Solve systems of equations.

- [Linear Function Graphs](https://ai.page/c/linear-function-graphs/index.md): Recognise that a linear function produces a straight-line graph, understand the relationship between an equation of the form y = mx + c and its graphical representation, and interpret gradient and y-intercept in context

## 8. Grade 8 · Solve linear equations and inequalities.

- [Solving Linear Equations](https://ai.page/c/solving-linear-equations/index.md): Use algebraic methods to solve linear equations in one variable, including equations that require rearrangement, expanding brackets, and collecting terms on both sides; solve equations with rational number coefficients

## 9. Grade 8 · Understand slope using previous learning of proportional relationships.

- [Understanding angles (age 11+)](https://ai.page/c/understanding-angles-age-11/index.md): Apply the properties of angles at a point (360°), on a straight line (180°), and vertically opposite angles to find unknown angles in multi-step problems
- [Proportion Graphs](https://ai.page/c/proportion-graphs/index.md): Represent proportional relationships using double number lines (two parallel number lines aligned at 0) and ratio tables; recognise that equivalent ratios generate straight lines through the origin when graphed

## 10. Grade 8 · Work with square and cube roots.

- [Square and cube numbers](https://ai.page/c/square-and-cube-numbers-maths/index.md): Use integer powers and associated real roots (square, cube, and higher); recognise powers of 2, 3, 4, and 5; distinguish between exact representations of roots and their decimal approximations

## 11. Grade 8 · Understand relationships among numbers and the real number system.

- [Number Sets & Infinity](https://ai.page/c/number-sets-and-infinity/index.md): Appreciate the infinite nature of the sets of integers, real numbers, and rational numbers; position integers on a number line and distinguish between rational and irrational numbers
- [Positive and Negative Numbers](https://ai.page/c/positive-and-negative-numbers/index.md): Understand positive and negative numbers as describing quantities with opposite directions or values; use them in context such as temperature, floors in a building, and bank balances
