This readable text presents the basic mathematical concepts--algebra, functions, and analytic geometry--needed for a solid foundation in calculus. Designed for beginning undergraduates, the text offers a simplified, more effective approach to trigonometry, treating the general angle first, then explaining trigonometric functions of real numbers, and linking the two concepts to allow immediate application by the student. Each section can be covered in one class hour, a flexible format that permits instructors to concentrate ...

This readable text presents the basic mathematical concepts--algebra, functions, and analytic geometry--needed for a solid foundation in calculus. Designed for beginning undergraduates, the text offers a simplified, more effective approach to trigonometry, treating the general angle first, then explaining trigonometric functions of real numbers, and linking the two concepts to allow immediate application by the student. Each section can be covered in one class hour, a flexible format that permits instructors to concentrate on those topics students need most help with. Features extensive examples, problems, chapter review exercises, and cumulative reviews.
