Technical Mathematics

More than 850 examples and 6,000 exercises—many of them application-oriented—provide opportunities for students to solve problems, practice what they have learned, and apply mathematics to situations they can expect to encounter on the job.

The CourseMate companion Web site contains a wealth of learning tools, including graded homework and student quizzes, selected solutions for students, PowerPoint tutorials, directions for using spreadsheets and different models of calculators, an interactive e-book, skill-building games and puzzles, 12 bonus calculus chapters, and more.

Initial material on right triangle trigonometry, statistics, the area and volume of irregular shapes, and informal calculus introduces key concepts early to support effective integration in subsequent chapters, as well as exploring complex concepts in an unintimidating way before immersing students in depth.

The accompanying Instructor Resources CD includes a complete solutions manual with fully worked solutions to every text problem, a computerized test bank, and an image library with helpful illustrations for classroom use, saving you valuable prep time.
