Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive and unified approach to elementary mathematics, weaving together the essential elements of college algebra, trigonometry, and analytical geometry. The author emphasizes the interconnectedness of these branches, showcasing the harmony between analysis and geometry. Departing from the traditional compartmentalization of mathematical disciplines, the book underscores the practical applications of mathematics in everyday life. Real-world examples from physics, engineering, statistics, and other scientific fields illustrate the power of mathematics as a tool for understanding and shaping our world. A unique feature of this book is the inclusion of timed exercises designed to develop students' problem-solving skills and mechanical proficiency. The author's commitment to providing a holistic learning experience is evident in the detailed diagrams and photographic illustrations that enhance comprehension and encourage active engagement. By bridging the gap between abstract concepts and concrete applications, this book equips students with a profound appreciation for the role of mathematics in science and civilization. The insights gleaned from its pages empower readers to tackle real-world challenges and contribute to the advancement of knowledge across various domains. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…

This text presents a course in elementary mathematics adapted to the needs of students in the freshman year of an ordinary college or technical school course, and of students in the first year of a junior college. The material of the text includes the essential and vital features of the work commonly covered in the past in separate courses in college algebra, trigonometry, and analytical geometry.
The fundamental idea of the development is to emphasize the fact that mathematics cannot be artificially divided into compartments with separate labels, as we have been in the habit of doing, and to show the essential unity and harmony and interplay between the two great fields into which mathematics may properly be divided; viz., analysis and geometry.
A further fundamental feature of this work is the insistence upon illustrations drawn from fields with which the ordinary student has real experience. The authors believe that an illustration taken from life adds to the cultural value of the course in mathematics in which this illustration is discussed. Mathematics is essentially a mental discipline, but it is also a powerful tool of science, playing a wonderful part in the development of civilization. Both of these facts are continually emphasized in this text and from different points of approach.
The student who has in any sense mastered the material which is presented will at the same time, and without great effort, have acquired a real appreciation of the mathematical problems of physics, of engineering, of the science of statistics, and of science in general.
A distinctly new feature of the work is the introduction of series of "timing exercises" in types of problems in which the student may be expected to develop an almost mechanical ability. The time which is given in the problems is wholly tentative; it is hoped, in the interest of definite and scientific knowledge concerning what may be expecte…

All Forgotten Books titles are printed on demand. The moment an order is submitted, it is automatically transmitted to our distributor and then forwarded to the printer, where it enters production. This process begins within minutes and is entirely automated.

For this reason, we kindly ask that you double-check the title, edition, and your shipping details before placing an order.
If you change your mind after ordering, you are welcome to return the book once it arrives, and a refund will be issued in accordance with AbeBooks’ return policy.
