Introductory Trigonometry

Introductory Trigonometry was written and designed specifically for Adult Basic Education Math, and the text satisfies all the curriculum guidelines set forth by the British Columbia Ministry of Skills, Training & Labour for this subject. Earlier drafts of the material were extensively field-tested at Vancouver Community College and other institutions.

Introductory Trigonometry was also designed to reduce the "intimidation factor" sometimes encountered by students of this subject. The book's physical and graphic design is clean an spacious. In a variety of problems and exercises, trigonometric concepts are related to life in British Columbia, through the use of subjects such as killer whales swimming past Tofino, trucks traveling down the Coquihalla Highway, and meteors flying high in the sky over Port Moody.

A complete answer key is provided, as is the Table of Trigonometric Ratios.
