Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The Barnett, Ziegler, Byleen College Algebra/Precalculus series is designed to be user friendly and to maximize student comprehension. The goal of this series is to emphasize computational skills, ideas, and problem solving rather than mathematical theory. College Algebra with Trigonometry, 7/e, introduces a right triangle approach to trigonometry and can be used in one or two semester college algebra with trigonometry or precalculus courses. The large number of pedagogical devices employed in this text will guide a student through the course. Integrated throughout the text, the students and instructors will find Explore-Discuss boxes which encourage students to think critically about mathematical concepts. In each section, the worked examples are followed by matched problems that reinforce the concept that is being taught. In addition, the text contains an abundance of exercises and applications that will convince students that math is useful. A Smart CD is packaged with the seventh edition of the book. This CD tutorial reinforces important concepts, and provides students with extra practice problems. Book News Annotation:New edition of a text in which Barnett (author and former professor),
Michael R. Ziegler and Karl E. Byleen (both professors in the
mathematics, statistics, and computer science department at Marquette
U.) emphasize problem solving, ideas and computational skills rather
than mathematical theory. The 12 chapters omit most derivations and
proofs unless their inclusion would add significant insight into a
particular concept. They present concrete examples first, followed
by a discussion of related general concepts and results. The included
CD-ROM contains a student tutorial with extended real-world
application videos, descriptive discussion, interactive diagrams, and
matched problems.
