About this book
As the market leader, the Larson/Hostetler Precalculus series provides both students and instructors with sound mathematics in an approachable way. The quality and quantity of the exercises, combined with interesting applications, cutting-edge design, and innovative resources make Precalculus the complete solution for both students and instructors. This text introduces trigonometry with the unit circle first and then with the right triangle. Use of the graphing calculator is optional. Model It real-life applications in nearly every text section are multi-part exercises that require students to generate and analyze mathematical models. First referenced in the Why You Should Learn It at the beginning of each section, these interesting applications illustrate why it is important to learn the concepts in each section. Proofs in Mathematics shows the proofs of selected theorems and demonstrates different proof techniques. For added convenience, in the Sixth Edition these proofs have been moved from an appendix to the end of relevant chapters. P.S. Problem Solving, at the conclusion of each chapter, features a collection of thought-provoking and challenging exercises that further explore and expand upon the concepts of the chapter. These exercises have unique characteristics that set them apart from traditional algebra and trigonometry exercises. A wealth of student success tools includes: How to Study This Chapter, a chapter-opening study guide that includes What you should learn
