Finding The Area Under The Normal Curve

This document contains a series of lessons on calculating and interpreting z-scores and areas under the normal curve. It includes examples of finding the z-score given the mean and standard deviation, finding the area under the normal curve for given z-values, and finding the area to the left or right of given positive and negative z-scores. The student is asked to show their work and solutions by completing tables and graphing the corresponding normal distributions.
