5.0 out of 5 stars I relearned trig in 2 days with this book!, August 24, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: High School Math III Review (Review Smart) (Paperback)

This book saved my skin. I found out two days before classes started that I had to take a math placement test in order to get into calculus. I had taken trig 7 years ago and forgotten it all, but this book explained everything so well, it re-taught me all my trig in two days and I aced the test! The explanations are so simple and clear, you only have to memorize three things--you'll understand everything else well enough that you can just draw a triangle and figure it out! This book summarizes everything you need to know clearly and concisely, and it gives lots of examples and problems to work. If I saw the authors right now, I'd give them a big old smooch!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, January 7, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: High School Math III Review (Review Smart) (Paperback)

Teaches Math in a very easy to understand way. I was able to understand everything throughly and quickly. Definitely the next best thing to doing the actual course. And user-friendly (or reader-friendly).
