NOTE: Before purchasing, check with your instructor to ensure you select the correct ISBN. Several versions of the MyLab™ and Mastering™ platforms exist for each title, and registrations are not transferable. To register for and use MyLab or Mastering, you may also need a Course ID, which your instructor will provide.
Used books, rentals, and purchases made outside of Pearson
If purchasing or renting from companies other than Pearson, the access codes for the MyLab platform may not be included, may be incorrect, or may be previously redeemed. Check with the seller before completing your purchase.

Precalculus: A Right Triangle Approach by Beecher, Penna, and Bittinger is known for helping students “see the math” through a focus on visualization and early introduction to functions. The author team has expanded and enhanced the instruction on review topics needed for today’s corequisite courses, or simply for students who come to the course underprepared.
The Precalculus Algebra MyLab Revision with Corequisite Support offers a complete precalculus MyLab Math course with review of key topics from developmental algebra. The authors have built tools specifically for underprepared students — resources that can be used by students independently via videos and notebook, or by instructors through integrating activities and interactive media into the classroom. Ideal either for standard course needs or for courses with students requiring additional preparation, this robust, just-in-time approach to corequisites gives instructors complete flexibility in implementation — no matter how their courses are set up.
Personalize learning with MyLab Math
By combining trusted author content with digital tools and a flexible platform, MyLab Math personalizes the learning experience and improves results for each student.

- Functions are introduced in Chapter 1, starting the course with a new topic rather than a review of equation-solving covered in previous math courses.
- Students learn the concept of a function by repeated exposure to the language, notation and use of functions throughout.
- Classify the Function exercises in the Skill Maintenance section of the exercise sets ask students to identify a number of functions by their type (linear, quadratic, rational, etc.)
- Throughout, the variety of functions increases and these exercises become more challenging.
- Technology Connections are optional sections that guide students in the use of the graphing calculator as another way to check problems.
- Zeros, solutions and x-intercepts are a theme of the text.
- Just-In-Time Review: Review of prerequisite algebra topics is now presented when students need it most.
- A set of 25 numbered short review topics creates an efficient review of intermediate algebra topics.
- This feature is placed at the back of the text. Just-In-Time icons are positioned throughout the text next to the example where review of an intermediate algebra topic would be helpful.
- Data-Informed Exercises: The authors revised exercises for this revision by analyzing usage data to improve the quality and quantity of exercises that matter the most to instructors and students. For example, the authors adjusted sample homework assignments to ensure usage of the most widely used exercises.
- Symmetry and Transformations: These topics are now presented in two sections rather than one due to reviewer feedback. Separating these concepts into two reasonable amounts of information allows for deeper student understanding.
