Suggested Problems


These problems are the ones that I suggest you do in additon to the ones you turn in. Feel free to do more than the ones I list if you find you need some extra practice. I do STRONGLY suggest that you do ALL of the suggested problems so that you are practicing for your quizzes and tests!

The streaming videos are posted in order to help you if you get stuck! They are NOT meant for you to just watch without ever having tried the problems BY YOURSELF! For maximum benefit, work what you can on the suggested problems on your own FIRST. Then use the videos as a check or to help you get started.
In order to view the videos properly, you need to be on a computer with a cable connection or higher. Also, you may need to adjust the volume quite a bit on a few of the videos.


All of the problem numbers that are in black correspond to the 7th edition of the Tan book. The pink star next to a number means that the problem is the same number in the 8th edition of Tan but differs slightly from the 7th edition. The numbers in pink parentheses that follow immediately after a black number represent the corresponding problem in the 8th edition of Tan.

ALL OF THE STREAMING VIDEOS CORRESPOND TO PROBLEMS FROM THE 7TH EDITION OF TAN!
