Basic Technical Mathematics

For courses in technical and pre-engineering technical programs or other programs for which coverage of basic mathematics is required.

The 11th Edition of Basic Technical Mathematics is a bold revision of this classic best-seller. The text now sports an engaging full-colour design, and new co-author Rich Evans has introduced a wealth of relevant applications and improvements, many based on user feedback.

The text continues to feature a vast number of applications from technical and pre-engineering fields–including computer design, electronics, solar energy, lasers fiber optics, and the environment–and aims to develop students’ understanding of mathematical methods without simply providing a collection of formulas. The authors start the text by establishing a solid background in algebra and trigonometry, recognising the importance of these topics for success in solving applied problems.
