Synopsis
A practical, visual path from intuition to calculus
This guide helps technical students build a solid understanding of calculus through plotting, graphic checks, and stepwise reasoning before formal proofs.
The book emphasizes an intuitional start—using graphs and simple calculations—to establish functions, rates of increase, and integration. It then introduces analytical methods, showing how ideas connect to mechanics, electricity, and real-world problems. A flexible design lets learners focus on topics that interest them, with chapters on logarithms, trigonometry, differentiation, and definite and indefinite integrals presented in a patient, accessible way.- Learn by drawing graphs and checking results by hand
- See how differentiation and integration develop from intuitive ideas
- Explore practical applications in physics and engineering
- Follow a course that balances early intuition with later rigor

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive guide to the use of practical mathematics, including the topics of logarithms and trigonometry. The author's approach is to cover the topic of trigonometry using many graphic and arithmetic methods, allowing the reader a more intuitive approach to the subject. The author also takes into account that most students are more familiar with the study of geometry than algebra upon beginning trigonometry. This practical methodology is applied to each chapter, including: logarithmic functions, rates of increase, differentiation, equations and identities, integration, vector algebra, solid geometry, centers of gravity, moments of inertia, and partial differentiation. The author also includes miscellaneous methods of integration and differential equations of applied physics, ensuring that students are able to apply their knowledge to other areas of study. By the end of the book, readers will have a deeper understanding of practical mathematics, as well as its applications in science, engineering, and other fields. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
