Sinopsis

 Trigonometry for Engineering Technology is designed to teach the fundamentals to students new to the subject and is also useful for in-house training programs and as a self-study refresher. The text uses mechanical, civil, and architectural applications to enhance its explanations of real-world scenarios. Its open format enables it to be used as a workbook either in class or for independent study.  In addition to its thorough treatment of right-angle trigonometry, the text includes oblique triangle calculations and graphing of trigonometric functions.  The examples in each chapter demonstrate a specific type of problem-solving procedure and are followed by practice exercises. Answers and complete solutions to the exercises are included in the appendix.
 
 Gary Powers has taught a wide range of classes for more than 15 years at South Hills School of Business and Technology, a two-year, post-secondary school located in State College, PA., including Geometry, Trigonometry, Physics, Dimensional Metrology, Machining, CNC Programming, and Mechanical Design. His students regularly serve internships with and are hired by a variety of engineering and manufacturing firms. Previously, Gary was employed for 16 years by Corning, Inc. as a manufacturing supervisor and process engineer. He holds a B.S. in Aerospace Engineering from the U.S. Naval Academy, and after graduating from the Naval Nuclear Power School he served in the submarine force. Gary is a member of the American Society of Engineering Education.
