5.0 out of 5 stars Great book. Lots of good trig., Mar 9 1999
By A Customer
This book is pretty small but it gives great explanations of geometric shapes, angles, and trig functions like tan, sin, cos, and others. It's straight to the point and I learned from it very quickly. I highly suggest getting this book before moving on to a more advanced, or even just a regular geometry or trig book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Basic formulas, principals, discussions of sequences and progressions and step-by-step directions link formulas to everyday life, Nov 16 2009
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Master Math: Pre-Calculus (Paperback)
Joining others in the 'Master Math' series is this fine introduction on calculus, covering the basics of sets, functions and integrals. Basic formulas, principals, discussions of sequences and progressions, and step-by-step directions link formulas to everyday life and provide calculus students with an excellent foundation for progressing to the next step. The result is a 'must' for any high school or college collection where calculus is an introductory course, and for any student taking it.
