EXCERPT: Preface - The authors of this textbook have adopted the standard arrangement of topics, beginning with trigonometric ratios of acute angles and proceeding to the general treatment of any angle. It is believed that this order of presentation best meets the needs of students taking a first course in trigonometry, and that it provides the soundest foundation for further study in any of the many fields of science in which trigonometry is applied. In the application of trigonometry to problems of a practical nature, emphasis has been placed on developing skill in trigonometric computation before assessing too closely the accuracy of computed results. To this end, only a brief consideration is made of significant figures in the early stages of the work. However, in the third chapter, two simple rules are introduced for recording results without exhibiting an unreasonable degree of accuracy. A more detailed study of approximate numbers and accuracy in computation with approximate numbers is undertaken in Chapter Sixteen. The numerous worked examples are intended to assist the student in following the presentation, which has been made as simple and direct as possible. Review exercises, co-ordinating all principles developed in each chapter, are included as well. The three sets of Test Papers are planned to offer additional review prior to the Fall, Winter and Spring Examinations, respectively . . . Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.…

Shopbeschreibung

For a good portion of the 1990's, our family was interested in the idea of entering the used book business. We are all avid readers, book lovers, and book collectors who cannot pass a bookstore without popping in. Family trips to the library and our local used bookstore were a regularity while growing up. With each of us having interests in different genres (with a little overlapping here and there), we cover a lot of bases. The thought of having a store of our own was appealing, and the hunt was on - both for stock and a location. We thought to combine under one roof many different things that would appeal to readers and book lovers. Not only used books, but some new items as well. Bookmarks (to ward off dog-eared pages), bookends (to keep those out-of-control collections under control), bookplates (to label books on the "Can I borrow that?" circuit to ensure that they always found their way home), book repair tape (to lend a helping hand to collectors with tattered favourites in their collections), and so on. With an interest in book-themed knick knacks as well, we had two sides to our would-be business: books and knick-knacks. Hence the business was born. In the early part of 1998 we bought a commercial property, and in the summer we first opened our doors in a storefront in Uxbridge, Ontario, Canada. With start-up stock consisting of a garage full of books hand-picked for just such a venture that we purchased from someone who changed their plans, we were in business. For several years we operated in this storefront, growing our business and learning about the industry and the backbone of it - the customers. It was very satisfying to be present at the end of someone's book quest, as we were quite often. Many a time we heard shouts of joy from somewhere in the shop as customers happened upon just what they'd been looking for (oftentimes for quite a while). At other times, people would approach us with bits and pieces of information that they remembered from long ago favourites in hopes that we could at least help them come up with an author or title to help in their search, which we often times did, with the book in hand. And when we couldn't come up with anything on our own, we would pick the brains of other customers in conversation, or turn to the internet for help for them. For us, quality and selection of stock go hand-in-hand with customer service. One isn't much good without the other. But times, people, places, and lives change and after several years in our storefront we made a change of our own - in 2004 we relocated to the internet. Now a home-based business in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, we are gradually bringing our inventory online here. We carry used paperbacks, hardbacks, and magazines for both adults and children. We have thousands upon thousands of books that are not yet listed for sale on the internet, but are gradually making their way there.…
