It is with great pleasure that I announce that I have submitted section 10.1 to Jeff for edits and exercises. I have also set-up a semi-secret page on stitz-zeager.com where you can preview the Trig portion of the book as it evolves. You can access the preview page here. I spent the better part of three weeks getting this section the way I wanted it, and I think it will pay off in the end. I am positioned perfectly at the end of 10.1 to introduce the circular functions sine and cosine. I firmly believe that if the first two sections of Trig are "done right," everything else will follow easily.

Version Square Root Two ready to go...
Hi folks! Version 1.414.... is now ready! Thanks to Bill Previts (a Lakeland colleague), the number of exercises in each section has nearly doubled! And thanks to Dimitri Moonen, we have fixed the 50 or so typos found in the book so far. For those who wish a printed copy, Jeff and I are using lulu.com to host our book. We don't make any profit on the book (and from what book reps have told us, at $14 a book, neither does lulu.com!) All the details are found at www.stitz-zeager.com Now that the semester is over (and there was much rejoicing!) I can settle back to working on Trigonometry in earnest. Check back for weekly updates on that project!
