Algebra and geometry Book

As one of my left-overbooks from high school, found this book generally helpful for relearning/refreshing the concepts again. However, the layout of the text being incremental and integrated is a less than ideal reference book (compared to texts that group similar lessons sequentially in blocks or units). This is only because the sheer amount of content (algebra, geometry, precalculus, examples. etc.) makes it difficulty to identify foundational areas and progression quickly, save for "cover-to-cover" reading. I still stand by my thoughts the quality of the content learned is very good with rigor.

The text is made for progressing through lessons sequentially, but students may find certain lessons difficult to understand. A knowledgeable teacher, tutor, or reference material is a blessing to clarify some concepts on select lessons, as some areas are not as intuitively explained as the rest of the text (or can result in confusion). The problem sets are preceded by practice problems (typically two or so depending on the material addressed), and has 30 additional problems per lesson. Although the answer section of this book offers a final solution for every odd answer, it is noteworthy they did not offer both for the practice problems in this text (although, it is found in the teacher's answer book).

Would recommend despite the frustration with the math subjects I had as a student, as it helps students delve into advanced topics. From a student perspective, I encourage educators to considering limiting the number of problems assigned to their students from each set, as doing all questions in the later problem sets as the units increase in complexity and can be overwhelming. Otherwise, more time and frustration is spent trying to complete and "get through" every problem opposed to understanding concepts, formulas, and methods more clearly.
