For courses in Algebra & Trigonometry.

Includes MyLab Math.

Prepare. Visualize. Succeed.

Algebra & Trigonometry by Beecher, Penna, and Bittinger is known for helping students "see the math" through a focus on visualization and early introduction to functions. The author team has expanded and enhanced the instruction on review topics needed for today's corequisite courses, or simply for students who come to the course underprepared.

The Algebra & Trigonometry MyLab Revision with Corequisite Support offers a complete algebra & trigonometry MyLab Math course with review of key topics from developmental algebra. The authors have built tools specifically for underprepared students - resources that can be used by students independently via videos and notebook, or by instructors through integrating activities and interactive media into the classroom. Ideal either for standard course needs or for courses with students requiring additional preparation, this robust, just-in-time approach to corequisites gives instructors complete flexibility in implementation - no matter how their courses are set up.
