Applied Mathematics for Technology and Careers

Requiring no prerequisites, this book starts with basic arithmetic concepts, then gradually develops the theories and techniques of algebra, geometry and trigonometry. Immediately after building a solid foundation in each area, readers are given numerous opportunities to solve real-life, arithmetic-related workplace problems. The authors take an innovative approach—the Institute for Corporate Competitiveness' (ICC) TPRA Method (Teach-Practice-Review-Apply)—to the teaching of applied mathematics.
