For courses in Precalculus.

Support all students, at every level, in their mathematics journey

Precalculus features the high-quality exercises that distinguish Sullivan texts, with Sullivan’s proven cycle of continuous preparation and retention: prepare for class, practice with homework, and review concepts. It contains 1 review chapter before covering the traditional topics of polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions and their graphs. The trigonometric functions are introduced using a unit circle approach, showing how it relates to the right triangle approach. Graphing technology (TI-84 Plus CE and Desmos) is provided and optional.

The 12th Edition adds many new and revised exercises and examples; adds new learning tips in margin notes; updates all graphing utility content and images; and much more.
