About this product
Product Information
This book contains simple explanations to some of the most important theorems and identities in mathematics. They are t intended to be rigorous proofs but rather intuitive guides that take the mystery out of some of the most powerful mathematical facts ever discovered. These important facts are often presented to students with justification. Students are expected to simply memorize them. This book t only presents the facts but also shows why they must be true in a logical way. It is t meant to be used as a textbook but it could be used as supplement to formal coursework or by someone who is simply interested in the development of advanced mathematics. It begins with a proof of the Pythagorean Theorem and continues with derivations of several commonly used geometric identities and the Quadratic Formula. It then moves on to the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, the Gradient Theorem, the Curl Theorem, the Divergence Theorem, and Taylor's Theorem. The book concludes with Euler's Formula and some number theory. It also includes four appendixes that explain the small angle approximations, a few important facts from Euclidean geometry, trigometric derivatives, and hyperbolic trigometry. Although many of the identities and theorems presented in this book are very powerful, the explanations should be easy to follow for anyone with a basic understanding and genuine interest in mathematics.Product Identifiers

Author BiographyJeremy Alford always had a love for math and science. He was one of those children who took their toys apart just to see how they work. After receiving a doctorate degree in physics, he decided to share his knowledge with anyone who is interested (and some who are not). He currently works with developmentally disabled adults and wants to improve math and science education.
