Modern analytic geometry (Houghton Mifflin mathematics program)

We have written this book with the aim of providing a modern course in analytic geometry for today's students. The past decade has witnessed important changes in the textbooks used for the study of algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. It has become evident that the traditional course in analytic geometry should also be changed to reflect in sporit, as well as in content, the changes that have taken place in the study of mathematics.This text is excellent preparation for the study of calculus and linear algebra. The material allows for a considerable amount of flexibility.
