Algebra and Trigonometry Review
Although she isn't technically home schooled, I do tend to teach my little sister at home. She's quite intelligent, especially for a middle school student, so all that was needed was the right book for the job. This is that book.
I set out to teach my sister Geometry and Trigonometry, as she's about to enter High School. This book did the Trigonometry job superbly, and, not only is she putting her trig identities to good use, but she's finally uncovered another world in mathematics. Because of this book, I can actually begin to teach her Calculus, something that I was hoping to do but was going to put off for another year.
This book is the best book I can think of to teach yourself College Algebra and Trigonometry, and it is also a great book to transition from the world of Algebra to the world of Calculus.

Customer Reviews
text book - Bruce J. Perlroth -
I never received this book because it got lost in the process. I then had to order it through the school book store and pay full price.
Bad Service - hot124 -
I noticed that I ordered the wrong book about 3 minutes after the order and asked the seller if she could not ship it because of this. She said it already shipped, I did not get the book for 25 days. What a joke, she could have told the truth.
damaged book, company good - cn -
When the book arrived, the shipping box was very damaged on one end. The book was not pack properly and also was quite damaged. I returned it and received a refund without a problem. I most likely would order from them again.
