Contemporary College Algebra and Trigonometry: A Graphing Approach

This text enables students to become active participants in developing their understanding of mathematics, while avoiding the danger of making technology an end in itself. Robust pedagogy including chapter opening applications, graphing explorations, technology tips, calculator investigations, and discovery projects are some of the tools students will use to master the material and begin applying the mathematics to solve real-world problems.
