From the Author
Introduction to Master Math: Pre-Calculus and Geometry: Pre-Calculus and Geometry is the third book in the Master Math series. The first and second books are entitled Basic Math and Pre-Algebra and Algebra. The Master Math series presents the general principles of mathematics from grade school through college including arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus and introductory calculus. Pre-Calculus and Geometry is a comprehensive pre-calculus book that explains the subject matter in a way that makes sense to the reader. It begins with the most basic principles and progresses through more advanced topics. Pre-Calculus and Geometry explains the principles and operations of geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus and introductory calculus, provides step-by-step procedures and solutions, and presents examples and applications. Pre-Calculus and Geometry is a comprehensive reference book for high school and college students that explains and clarifies principles of pre-calculus and calculus they are learning in school. The information provided in each book and in the series as a whole is progressive in difficulty and builds on itself, which allows the reader to gain perspective on the connected nature of mathematics. The skills required to understand every topic presented are explained in an earlier chapter or book within the series. Each of the three books contains a complete table of contents, a comprehensive index, and the tables of con-tents of the other two books in the series so that specific subjects, principles and formulas can be easily found. The books are written in a simple style that facilitates understanding and easy referencing of sought-after principles, definitions and explanations. Pre-Calculus and Geometry and the Master Math series are not replacements for textbooks but rather reference books providing explanations and perspective. The Master Math series would have been in-valuable to me during my entire education from grade school through graduate school. There is no other source that provides the breadth and depth of the Master Math series in a single book or series. Finally, mathematics is a language–the universal language. A person struggling with mathematics should approach it in the same fashion he or she would approach learning any other language. If someone moves to a foreign country, he or she does not expect to know the language automatically. It takes practice and contact with a language in order to master it. After a short time in the foreign country he or she would not say, "I do not know this language well yet. I must not have an aptitude for it." Yet many people have this attitude toward mathematics. If time is spent learning and practicing the principles, mathematics will be-come familiar and understandable. Don’t give up. Note to the reader: There are three misprints in books from the first printing. 1) The definition of Pi on page 23. Pi is equivalent to the circumference divided by the diameter of a circle (not the radius of a circle). 2) The equation for the volume of a pyramid on page 40. The equation should read: Volume of a pyramid = (1/3)(area of base)(height) = (1/3)(area of base)(d) The (1/3) was left out. 3) The third line on page 79 should read ..."then r^m -> 0".
