Other Best trigonometry books for beginners and self study

[BadgerBadger92]

I am teaching myself math and wondering if any of you have recommendations on trigonometry books for beginners and self study. Any help is appreciated!

Instead of a book, have you looked at Khan Academy?

As long as you have very successfully studied Intermediate Algebra, then just about any college standard textbook for a course on Trigonometry should be fine for anyone to use in self-study. You should be able to find something suitable from some used-book sales such as from a local library or from the library at a community college. I recommend that way, because the prices of what are found there should be much less than $5 per book. An example of what you could use may be the Larson & Hostetler textbook "Trigonometry". If you try to buy the same thing on Barnes & Noble, the price as "used" may be there over $60.

Some other supplemental resources are:
- the free OpenStax textbooks on math,
- Schaums Outlines on Trigonometry
- Jan Gullbergs Birth of Numbers book which has a lot of historical side lights and a section on trigonometry as well as other math topics.
