About the Book
As a long time trigonometry instructor, I am deeply familiar with the problems that students face in their trig class. Often students are confused from the very beginning of the course and never get back on track after that. Over the past several years I have created a series of trigonometry notes for my students to provide them with clear and concise explanations as well as lots of extra practice. Trigonometry: A Study Guide for Success is the perfect companion for any trig student looking for some extra help. It provides a complete set of easy-to-follow notes with sample problems, supplementary problem sets, and a thorough answer key at the end where every problem is worked out step-by-step with explanations. Also included is a complete, easy to read reference copy of the unit circle.

If you feel like your trigonometry textbook is incomprehensible, you find it difficult to follow in class, or you just still don't exactly understand what a radian is, then this book is your solution. Purchase it today and see for yourself that trigonometry can be easy to understand!

About the 2nd Edition
The 2nd Edition is brand new as of September, 2006. It includes two additional sections of notes (T.10 and T.11 in the book), as well as a Supplementary Practice set after each of the six units. Worked out solutions can be found to all supplementary problems in the solutions manual.
