Ideas in this flowchart

• Quantitative and predictive reasoning uses several complementary approaches.
• Spatial questions concern size, distance, and location.
• Spatial analysis may use geometry, trigonometry, geography, or cartography.
• Numerical reasoning characterizes quantitative properties.
• It addresses counts, proportions, and distributions.
• It handles units and very large or small values.
• Algebraic reasoning expresses relationships among variables.
• Modeling represents systems in simplified form.
• Models support predictions about future events.
• Models support predictions about hypothetical or unobservable events.
• Geometry is one method used for spatial analysis.
• Trigonometry is one method used for spatial analysis.
• Geography is one method used for spatial analysis.
• Cartography is one method used for spatial analysis.
• A model simplifies a system to make reasoning and prediction possible.
