Excellent Basic Math Text

I have the third edition which I used in college back in the mid- 1990's. Of all the math books that I have used, This text is my favorite. The authors of this text really make math fun and easy to learn. I highly recommend this book to all who just haven't understood math and hate it. This book will make math fun.

try doing the tests on MathZone

The book and the publisher's MathZone show a nice attempt at integrating the power of the Internet with a traditional maths text. The material is for high school readers. You can of course treat the book just as a conventional text, and refrain from accessing MathZone. In this respect, the book is well polished, being in its 6th edition, and very logically internally consistent. As befits Euclidean geometry.

Now if you do want to use MathZone, what to do at the website? Perhaps the most fruitful approach, if you are disciplined enough, is to take those tests offered there. In addition to doing the exercises in the book, of course. The tests are a valuable metric of how well you comprehend the material. The authors and publisher have put a lot of time into MathZone. Go for it!
