Description
Dugopolski’s Trigonometry gives students the essential strategies to help them develop the comprehension and confidence they need to be successful in this course. Students will find enough carefully placed learning aids and review tools to help them do the math without getting distracted from their objectives. Regardless of their goals beyond the course, all students will benefit from Dugopolski’s emphasis on problem solving and critical thinking, which is enhanced by the addition of nearly 1,000 exercises in this edition.
Instructors will also find this book a pleasure to use, with the support of an Annotated Instructor’s Edition which maps each group of exercises back to each example within the section; pop quizzes for every section; and answers on the page for most exercises plus a complete answer section at the back of the text. An Insider’s Guide provides further strategies for successful teaching with Dugopolski.
