Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intermediate Algebra with Trigonometry focuses on principles, operations, and approaches employed in intermediate algebra with trigonometry. The publication first elaborates on basic properties and definitions, first-degree equations and inequalities, and exponents and polynomials. Discussions focus on polynomials, sums, and differences, multiplication of polynomials, greatest common factor and factoring by grouping, inequalities involving absolute value, equations with absolute value, and multiplication, division, and order of operation for real numbers. The manuscript then ponders on rational expressions, quadratic equations, and rational expressions and roots. Topics include equations quadratic in form, quadratic formula, completing the square, multiplication and division of complex numbers, equations with radicals, simplified form for radicals, multiplication and division of rational expressions, and addition and subtraction of rational expressions. The text takes a look at triangles, trigonometric identities and equations, introduction to trigonometry, and sequence and series, including arithmetic progressions, trigonometric functions, tables and calculators, sum and difference formulas, and the law of sines and cosines. The publication is a valuable reference for students and researchers interested in intermediate algebra with trigonometry.
