Assignments

If you miss an assignment, then you can find it here.

Most graded work can be done in class; although it can be made up outside of class, regular attendance is important.

Resources

The official textbook for the course is Algebra & Trigonometry written by Abramson and published by OpenStax. You should be able to get this at the bookstore (in paperback), or you can read it online (see the link below); most assignments will come from it. One way or another, you need a copy of this textbook.

I also have some lecture notes, hand-outs, links, and so forth. Many of these will be part of the assigned reading, so let me know if you have any difficulty accessing them.
