Electrical Math Principles and
Applications presents math principles in an electrical context so
that learners understand their relevance.
Electrical Math Principles and Applications demonstrates
how electrical technicians use math on the job. From the
fundamentals to advanced math concepts, this text/workbook presents
math principles in an electrical context so that learners understand
their relevance.
Each chapter is divided into smaller sections that present basic
math principles in arithmetic, notations, numbering systems,
measurements, conversions, formulas, equations, percentages, ratios,
graphs, trigonometry, vectors, and complex numbers.
Features:
- Electrical applications provide step-by-step explanations
and graphics showcasing how math is used to solve problems in
the field.
- Checkpoint questions at the end of each section assess
comprehension of math principles.
Math exercises at the end of each chapter ask learners to use
math principles to solve electrical problems.
- Complimentary online learner resources provide additional
opportunities to learn and apply math skills.
