About this book :-
Precalculus with Geometry and Trigonometry written by
Avinash Sathaye .
This book on Precalculus with Geometry and Trigonometry should be treated as simply an enhanced version of our book on College Algebra. Most of the topics that appear here have already been discussed in the Algebra book and often the text here is a verbatim copy of the text in the other book.
We expect the student to already have a strong Algebraic background and thus the algebraic techniques presented here are more a refresher course than a first introduction. We also expect the student to be heading for higher level mathematics courses and try to supply the necessary connections and motivations for future use.
