The book covers many classical topics in elementary algebra,
including factoring, quadratic functions, irrational expressions,
Vieta's relations, equations and systems of equations, inequalities,
sums and products, and polynomials. Expanding upon the previous work
in the series, 105 Problems in Algebra from the AwesomeMath Summer
Program, this book features additional more advanced topics,
including exponents and logarithms, complex numbers, and
trigonometry.
The special section on trigonometric substitutions and more
explores seemingly algebraic problems with natural geometric and
trigonometric interpretations. To give the reader practice with the
strategies and techniques discussed in each of the chapters, the
authors have included 108 diverse problems, of which 54 are
introductory and 54 are advanced. Solutions to all of these problems
are provided, in which different approaches are compared.
