Trigonometry Essentials Practice Workbook with Answers: Master Basic Trig Skills: Improve Your Math Fluency Series Workbook Edition

Even if you were never very good at math, if you get a workbook to help your child learn math, I suggest that you let your child try to explain the math in the workbook to you and that you try to understand what your child tells you, because many people who have trouble with math learn better when they try to put it into their own words, or if they can't find the right words, maybe asking them questions will help both of you figure it out. And learning to ask questions about math will help students ask the teacher questions if the teacher doesn't explain well enough!

A good quality workbook. Well defined processes, with graduating order of problems such that the reader is well prepared for the next step. If learning from scratch, students will realize much greater success if making sure they clearly understand the each chapter before moving on.This understanding of trig functions given here makes memorization obsolete, as you understand the logic behind each determination. I am so glad to save this time of memorization and just have a clarity of understanding the unit circle, signs of each sin/cos/tan per quadrant, without wasting any time.Even the typos are so few that when you find them, its rather apparent, and a fun surprise.P14 answer key for problem 11 is incorrect,P 32 has a typo in the additional terms csc, sec, cotp 96 example 2 defines an angle of 210º in quadrant 2, which is actually in quadrant 3 and will change the sign of the answerThere may be other typos, but that's all I found. It would be nice if the publisher listed on a website so purchasers can correct them before attempting to learn trigonometry from scratch. Its nice for all navigators to receive updates whenever a buoy or an island is incorrectly described on a chart, and so too would this greatly serve the student navigating trigonometry.Overall a good learning book, just shy of greatness. Has helped me a ton preparing to test out of trig into precalculus and save a whole semester for crucial prerequisites. Thank you author! If anyone knows of any good books for calculus and precalculus, let me know.

Great Book

I just want to emphasize the "Basic Trig Skills" as seen on the front cover. The book's contents run the gamut of most of the more essential college level trig concepts, but even so, I feel way too much attention was spent on the "easy" components of the subject. For example, pages upon pages were dedicated to converting degrees to radians and vice-versa. This is simple arithmetic that one cold teach a hamster to do in a half-hour. I feel that space would've been better spent further proving identities or practicing angle formulas, for example. But alas, it is still a useful book. I would recommend it if you need the extra help and have money to spare.

I took a precalculus class and did ok in the class, well after a semester of calculus I don't feel like I learned any of the trig. I purchased this book to help me relearn what I should have in the precalculus class. So far I am working on chapter 2 and I have learned a few things that I didn't in the precalculus class. It has a lot of problems to work out. The answers are in the back of the book for you to review and make sure you are doing the problems correctly. I found this book because of a YouTuber that I subscribed to, The Math Sorcerer. I look for all kinds of math stuff to help get through engineering school.

Good

The media could not be loaded. I’m so glad I bought this book. Everyone talks about it and it’s truly amazing to pick this up and just go. I recommend this book for people want to practice in a hurry. It almost feels better than a crossword puzzle or sudoku. I could easily take this with me on a plane and just go full turbo. Honestly if you’re buying material don’t forget about this gem!

pretty good book for practice (practice makes perfect) and explains concepts well. However I'm giving it a three because most of the practices were not in radian form but were instead in degrees. i couldn't really use it as much as I hoped to. also they do not provide answers/strategies for proofs.
