College algebra and trigonometry /
Leithold, Louis
College algebra and trigonometry / Louis Leithold - Reading, Massachusetts : Addision-Wesley Publishing Company, c1989 - xviii, 702 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.
Includes index.
Review Topics in Algebra -- Equations and Inequalities -- Graphs and Equation -- Functions and Their Graphs -- Exponential and Logarithmic Function -- Trigonometric Functions -- Analytic Trigonometry -- Systems of Equations and Inequalities, and Matrices.
In a course titled "College Algebra and Trigonometry" a student should gain an appreciation of mathematics as a logical science, and the subject matter should be expounded in such a way that it conforms to the experience and maturity of the freshman mathematics student. Furthermore, the course is rarely a terminal one in mathematics, and thus another of its purposes is to present the means to develop skills that will enable a person to study effectively more-advanced courses. With these objectives in mind, I have attempted to reflect the consensus that mathematics should be meaningful, and I have made every effort to write a textbook that students can read advantageously on their own.
