Trigonometry: A Unit Circle Approach (8th Edition)

Posted by Deneen Johnigan on Monday, 31 May 2010

Great Price "Trigonometry: A Unit Circle Approach (8th Edition)" for $64.96 Today



Underneath all of the special features, that are common to see in beginning math textbooks these days, one finds the essential kernel of a solid course in trigonometry in this text, as well as a nice review of college algebra. Naturally, the additional "stuff" provides a whole level of organization above the basic concepts, definitions and theorems of trigonometry. Thus, the wise student can tailor a course of study for her or his needs. This makes this textbook very suitable for classroom settings such as in community colleges in which one finds students with a diversity of learning styles. Although this makes learning trigonometry optimally easy for the student, this does not signify that the typical student would be wise to neglect working substantial numbers of problems. The text is especially rich in "word problems", which are the valuable types of problems to prepare one for courses such as physics, that involve applications of mathematics for which trigonometry is important. The level of rigor is suitable for beginning students. The question arises as well as to what extent a text like this would be a wise investment for a student who wishes to learn trigonometry by self-study. My personal view is that in a setting apart from teachers and tutors for guidance, this book would be too demanding for most beginning students.

Great Price "Algebra and Trigonometry- 2nd Edition (with Video Skillbuilder CD-ROM )" for $113.00 Today



I recommend this book as a quick review of Trig or as extra help along with the textbook for those learning Trig. This book impressed me because it is straightforward and easy to follow. I am terrible at math and I always make dumb mistakes, but this book has all the answers worked out. I used to sit there for hours trying to figure out why I was getting all the answers wrong when I thought I understood how to do the problems. After I bought this book, I was able to see what my mistakes were and correct them within seconds of doing the problem. You might still need help from a person occasionally if you're confused about something in the book, but for the most part this book is better than a tutor because it is more efficient. Instead of waiting for someone else to figure out what your mistakes are, you can just compare your work to the book's!

If you're great at math this book is a great review book because it goes quickly through the essentials in an organized fashion. There is no fluff. If you're trying to cram, it tells you what's most important.

Great Price "Precalculus (Sixth Edition)" for $30.00 Today



I reported them to Amazon months ago - nothing's changed.
There are two different books on amazon.com:

BOOK 1: "Precalculus 5/e" by Larson & Hostetler (search for 0618052852 on amazon.com). It has a very good supplement - "Study and Solutions Guide" by Dianna Zook (0618072713).
Both books were published by Houghton Mifflin Company, which has nice resource site http://college.hmco.com/mathematics/students/.
I have no affiliation with this publisher. From the pull-down "Precalculus" window Select Title "Precalculus 5/e Larson/Hostetler ((c)2001)". You'll be very pleased with the links you find there. If you seriously want to ace Precalculus - get both - "Precalculus" and "Study...".

BOOK 2: "Precalculus Functions and Graphs: A Graphing Approach/Precalculus With Limits: A Graphing Approach (Student Study Guide)" by Larson (0618074104).

Here's one bug:
Somehow reviews posted for BOOK 1 got mirrored onto BOOK 2 or vice versa (compare books' reviews).
Another bug:
Book 2 in reality has a title "Study and Solution Guide" and its authors are Bruce Edwards and Dianna Zook (not Larson). Compare it with "Study and Solutions Guide for Precalculus Functions and Graphs : A Graphing Approach and: Precalculus With Limits : A Graphing Approach" (0669417297), which is older: 2/e, (c)1997.

Book 2 gives solutions to odd-numbered excersizes and to all Chapter Practice Tests and to Chapter and Cumulative Tests in both "Precalculus Functions and Graphs...3/e" (0618052909) and "Precalculus with Limits...3/e" (0618052917).

Those two books were published in 2001 by Houghton Mifflin Company. On http://college.hmco.com/mathematics/students/ from the pull-down "Precalculus" window select either of their titles. Click on "Purchase this Product or Study Aides" and you'll see the whole learning package which includes aforementioned "Study and Solution Guide" ISBN: (0-618-07410-4) (for some reason Bruce Edwards is dropped and only Dianna Zook is listed as author; apparently, amazon.com doesn't hold monopoly on making mistakes).

Make sure you are reading reviews relevant to the book you consider buying.

Customer Review


A Comprehensive Precalculus Textbook - M. Larsson - Bay Area, CA
I had originally taken a precalculus course at a community college and used a different book from this one. In addition to using an inferior book, the instructor also decided to skip over trigonometry altogether. It was mainly due to this fact that I decided to pick up this book and learn trig on my own (as well as review algebra) as I entered calculus and found the need for it absolutely essential, and I'm glad I did. The book is laid out in a very reader-friendly format, which tends to be rare with mathematics textbooks. Each chapter is concise, the examples given are formatted to give a true representation of the end-of-chapter questions. The book does not assume that "the other half" of the information presented is being explained by an instructor, keeping each chapter-section self-contained and easily understood. This is exactly the book I wish I'd had years ago when I began toying with the idea of self-study to prepare for calculus placement tests, and certainly the book I wish I'd had when I took precalculus. I'll be keeping this book, along with the solutions guide, on my bookshelf permanently as a reference book for my calculus classes and beyond.

I did not get a chance to try out the companion-software on the CD-ROM, so I cannot give a fair review of it. I can, however, recommend this book to students wanting to do self-study, those wanting a supplement to their existing precalculus textbook, and to teachers looking for a text to use in their classes. Now, if only my calculus textbook was as clear and concise, I'd be in great shape. . .


Book purchase - N. Scherich -
Books were in better condition than described in the ad. I will definitely buy again.

Trigonometry: A Right Triangle Approach (5th Edition) Review




The college where I teach recently dropped a two-course sequence in precalculus in favor of a one-semester course. This of course requires the re-examination of the text to be used for precalculus and it is within that context that I examined this book.
I found it an excellent choice for a textbook for a one-semester class in precalculus. It begins with a quick review of graphs and functions, but then immediately goes to trigonometric functions. The subsequent chapters are:

*) Analytic trigonometry
*) Applications of trigonometric functions
*) Polar coordinates; vectors
*) Analytic geometry
*) Exponential and logarithmic functions

The coverage of these topics is thorough and plenty of exercises with solutions are included. I was also impressed by the use of coloration to catch and direct your attention through the explanations. This is a technique that is sometimes neglected in the development of mathematics texts. I will be recommending this book to the department chair for the text of choice for precalculus.

These authors understand what it takes to be successful in mathematics, the skills that students bring to this course, and the way that technology can be used to enhance learning without sacrificing math skills. As a result, they have created a textbook with an overall learning system involving preparation, practice, and review to help students get the most out of the time they put into studying. In sum, Sullivan and Sullivan's Trigonometry: Enhanced with Graphing Utilities gives students a model for success in mathematics.

As with all of Bittinger's books that I have used, this one makes the subject easy to understand. If you're having trouble grasping the concepts of Trig, this book will really help you.
Also, there are lots of hints and directions for using your calculator to solve trig problems.
I only have an hour a week to work with students, so having a book that has lots of explanation is an essential key to success.

This text was written with the goal of having students succeed in this course, and gain a foundation to succeed in further mathematics courses. To that end, the authors have written a text with a theme (showing the connections between the zeros, x-intercepts, and solutions), with a series of side-by-side features (designed to show examples being solved algebraically and graphically), and with the knowledge that many students are using graphing technology to help them learn the key concepts in this course (and so the book automatically comes bundled with a free graphing calculator manual). Thus, the approach of this text is more interactive than most texts and the authors feel that, accordingly, more students will succeed in this course.
