Great reference book

Recently took college-level calculus and forgot most of what I had learned in high school. Bought this along with "Calculus for Dummies" and used both to help me survive the course. This book is definitely not comprehensive, but I still have to give it five stars for its great plain-english descriptions of some difficult concepts. I wouldn't buy this book as my only source to learn trigonometry, but as an accompaniment to a good class or as an assistant to help with homework, it does a great job.

Excellent book

This book is well written. It is thorough in its presentation of trigonometry.It also reviews the geometry necessary to understand the trig.There is an emphasis on practical applications using trigonometry. The explanations concerning how various equations are derived is especially helpful. These enable you to understand instead of memorize. The Trigonometry workbook is an excellent companion book.

Best book for any Trigonometry student who is struggling

I bought this book and two others at the beginning of my college Trig class. This book is the only one that I used. It was the best investment for the class that I could have made. Trigonometry for Dummies provided all the fundamental concepts that were covered in college Trig and explained them so that even a non-math major like myself could understand. I would highly recommend this book for anyone struggling with college Trigonmetry, or if you are looking for a great book to refresh your skills.

Excellent Book

After being out of school for quite some time, I needed a book to get me back up to speed on trig. This book is great. Highly recommended.
