Trigonometry

Description

Hallmark features of this title

• Chapter Openers discuss real-world situations that use mathematics from that chapter.
• Try This exercises let students immediately try a problem that is just like the example and check their work.
• For Thought exercises are 10 true/false questions that review the basic concepts in the section, check student understanding before beginning the exercises, and promote writing and discussion.
• Hints suggest ways of approaching a problem and give a starting point to solve the application problem.
• Highlights contain an overview all of the chapter concepts along with brief examples to illustrate the concept.
• Chapter Review Exercises give a comprehensive review of the chapter without reference to individual sections to prepare students for the chapter test.

For courses in Plane Trigonometry. Can also be used in co-requisite courses, and in courses with students requiring some skill remediation.

Prepares students to succeed in trigonometry and beyond 

Emphasizing problem solving and critical thinking, Trigonometry with Integrated Review helps students develop the comprehension and confidence they need to succeed in and out of the classroom. For the 5th Edition, Mark Dugopolski has developed MyLab™ Math features to better prepare students and help them think more visually and conceptually about the mathematical content. 

Integrated Review is now incorporated into the MyLab Math course, providing a full suite of resources to reinforce students’ grasp of key foundational concepts, along with additional support assignments and videos. New Guided Visualizations bring mathematical concepts to life, helping students envision concepts through directed exploration and purposeful manipulation. The new Integrated Review Notebook provides a structured place for students to practice foundational skills, either in-class or at home.

He then received a PhD in the area of topology and an MS in statistics from the University of Illinois at Champaign – Urbana. Mark taught mathematics at Southeastern Louisiana University in Hammond for 25 years and now holds the rank of Professor Emeritus of Mathematics. He has been writing textbooks since 1988. He is married and has 2 daughters. In his spare time he enjoys tennis, jogging, bicycling, fishing, kayaking, gardening, bridge, and motorcycling.

New and updated features of this title

• All graphing calculator screenshots have been redone using the TI-84 Plus CE.
• Updated data: Data used in examples, exercises and chapter openers has been revised for currency.
• Many new nonstandard exercises ranging from easy to challenging (see exercise 33 on the Law of Sines) have been added.
• Section 2.5, Combining Functions, has been rewritten to put more emphasis on producing the graphs with a graphing calculator versus drawing by hand. Section 3.2, Verifying Identities, has been rewritten to provide six examples corresponding to the six-point strategy for verifying identities.
• Multiplying trigonometric binomials  and  factoring trigonometric expressions have been moved from Section 3.2 to Section 3.1. Section 3.2 now focuses solely on verifying identities using the six-point strategy.
• A new section 6.6, Fun with Polar and Parametric Equations, experiments with polar and parametric equations, producing interesting graphs on a calculator that would be impossible to draw by hand.
