Statement of Inquiry
Models are depictions of real-life events using expressions, equations or graphs while a function is defined as a relation or expression involving one or more variable. Creating different representations of functions to model the relationships between variables, visually and symbolically as graphs, equations and/or tables represents different ways to communicate mathematical ideas.
Geometry allows us to quantify the physical world, enhancing our spatial awareness in two and three dimensions. This branch provides us with the tools for analysis, measurement and transformation of quantities, movements, and relationships.

Conceptual Understandings
-
The parameters in a function or equation may correspond to notable geometric features of a graph and can represent physical quantities in spatial dimensions
-
Systems of equations often, but not always, lead to intersection points
-
In two dimensions, the Voronoi diagram allows us to navigate, path-find or establish an optimum position.
