Algebra II Workbook For Dummies

Overview

Boost your chances of scoring higher at Algebra II

Algebra II introduces students to complex algebra concepts in preparation for trigonometry and calculus. In this new edition of Algebra II Workbook For Dummies, high school and college students will work through the types of Algebra II problems they'll see in class, including systems of equations, matrices, graphs, and conic sections. Plus, the book now comes with free 1-year access to chapter quizzes online! 

A recent report by ACT shows that over a quarter of ACT-tested 2012 high school graduates did not meet any of the four college readiness benchmarks in mathematics, English, reading, and science. Algebra II Workbook For Dummies presents tricky topics in plain English and short lessons, with examples and practice at every step to help students master the essentials, setting them up for success with each new lesson.

  • Tracks to a typical Algebra II class
  • Can be used as a supplement to classroom learning or for test prep
  • Includes plenty of practice and examples throughout
  • Comes with free access to chapter quizzes online

Rules representing parabolas come in two standard forms to separate the functions opening upward or downward from relations that open sideways. The standard forms tell you what the parabola looks like — its general width or narrowness, in which direction it opens, and where the vertex (turning point) of the graph is.
In algebra, you often come across equations that have no real solutions — or equations that have the potential for many more real solutions than they actually have. For instance, the equation x2 + 1 = 0 has no real solutions. If you write it as x2 = –1 and try to take the square root of each side, you run into trouble.
