Assorted Handouts and Tutorials

You must have Acrobat Reader to open these documents. You can get this at www.adobe.com. To print, use the small print button inside the PDF document's window. The optional worksheets are for more practice if you need it. There are occasional notes in the Section column explaining which parts of the worksheet pertain to the section.We are using a new book this semester and so I have not assigned each worksheet to a section of the book. If you want more practice, see me and I will lead you to specific worksheets.

You will also see a few videos of trouble problems.
