Math for
Electricity & Electronics
Third Edition
Arthur D. Kramer
The latest step in the evolution of
Mathematics for Electricity & Electronics, the third edition
makes use of more exercises and examples than ever before to make it
the most direct route to a thorough understanding of essential
algebra and trigonometry for electricity and electronics technology.
Practical, well-illustrated information
sharpens the reader's ability to think quantitatively, predict
results, and troubleshoot effectively, while repetitive drills
encourage the learning of necessary rote skills.
All of the mathematical concepts, symbols, and
formulas required by future technicians and technologists are
covered to help ensure mastery of the latest ideas and technology.
And finally, the text is rounded out by
real-life applications to electrical problems, improved calculator
examples and solutions, and topics that prepare readers for the
study of calculus.
Features:
- readers will learn to use and adapt
formulas as well as gain critical-thinking skills necessary to
understand, analyze, and solve mathematical problems
- the non-electronics chapters feature
practical problems that encourage learning by applying key
concepts to everyday situations that readers can relate to, such
as cars, salaries, sales prices, grades, sports, and more
- "Close the Circuit" examples put theory
into practice by showing readers step-by-step how to apply the
mathematical concepts to an electricity or electronics problem,
while "Error Boxes" point out common mistakes and stress the
correct approach to the solution
- a companion CD-ROM contains interactive
math tutorials to assist in clearly illustrating theoretical math
concepts
- the Online Companion features additional
problems for readers seeking supplemental drill and practice
opportunities
