This book is an exploration of the world of mathematics that many high school and college students have never encountered. Little algebra is necessary for the topics in this textbook: set theory, financial math, statistics, conversion, and geometry. These topics were chosen by their clear applications to everyday life and their thought-provoking exercises. This book will provide glimpses into ways of thinking mathematically while highlighting algorithmic, graphical, algebraic, statistical, and analytic approaches to solving problems.
