Description

This paperback text is designed specifically to motivate students to participate—actively and immediately—in the learning process. The text is crafted to meet the varied skill levels of students—giving them solid content coverage in a supportive format. This text also fosters conceptual thinking with exercises, computer/graphing calculator exercises, and a thoroughly integrated five-step problem solving approach. This worktext features a right triangle introduction to trigonometry.


Features

  • The worktext format gives students pedagogical support, with each section broken into subsections, thereby becoming a built-in study guide.
  • Margin exercises make students active participants in the study of algebra and trigonometry and provide immediate reinforcement.
  • The five-step problem solving approach of (1) familiarize, (2) translate, (3) solve, (4) check, and (5) state the answer is applied as appropriate.
  • All exercises, including challenge and synthesis exercises, are keyed to objectives.
  • Technology Connection boxes expose students to the power of technology, provide visualization of concepts, and foster intuitive and discovery learning.
  • Exposition and organization were streamlined to make the text more accessible to students.
  • Thinking and writing exercises and a Chapter Test are included at the end of every chapter.
  • Computer-generated art makes figures more precise, easier to read, and more appealing.
  • Consistent use of color in graphs enables students to visualize concepts more easily.
  • Rational function are now introduced earlier—in chapter 4.
