Synopsis

Providing a clear, concise presentation of the standard topics of college algebra and trigonometry, this book covers the mathematics (algebra, functions, analytic geometry, trigonometry combinatorics, and probability) needed before approaching more advanced subjects such as calculus and discrete mathematics. Written with both instructor and student in mind, the text is designed to be easy to use, and each section can be covered in one class. Clearly marked subsections make it easy to omit more basic topics when necessary. The material is carefully organized and paced, offering explanations through a combination of examples and theory. A review of basic algebra is included, with coverage of equations and inequalities, graphs and functions, complex numbers and more. This edition contains more exercises requiring the use of a calculator, new and numerous examples, and end-of-section exercises that provide a test of the student's progress.
