Lesson 12

Practice With Proportional Relationships

Lesson Narrative

This optional lesson gives students an additional opportunity to practice finding unknown values in proportional relationships using contextual examples. The problems preview using the Pythagorean Theorem, which is a key idea in a subsequent lesson. They also preview finding all unknown values in right triangles, which is a key idea in a subsequent unit. Students have a chance to reason abstractly and quantitatively as they think about whether their answers make sense in context (MP2).
