Algebra and Trigonometry, 7th Edition, is a college textbook written by Robert F. Blitzer to serve students enrolled in Algebra & Trigonometry courses. Published by Pearson, this volume establishes core mathematical competencies by examining fundamental algebraic concepts, equations, inequalities, and functions.
The content moves systematically through key functional families, including polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions. It then transitions into trigonometric functions and analytic trigonometry, alongside additional topics in trigonometry to complete the coverage of angle-based functions.
Subsequent chapters explore multi-variable algebraic techniques through systems of equations and inequalities, matrices, and determinants. The sequence concludes with conic sections, analytic geometry, sequences, mathematical induction, and probability. Throughout this framework, the text incorporates real-life applications, behavioral science perspectives, and pop-culture references to support student understanding.
