Description
McKeague and Turner (both, Cuesta College) cover the usual introductory trigonometry topics: the six functions, right triangle trigonometry, radian measure, graphing and inverse functions, identities and formulas, equations, triangles, and complex numbers and polar coordinates. Appendices review inverse functions, exponential functions, and logarithmic functions. The sixth edition adds a section on graphing the tangent, cotangent, secant, and cosecant functions.
