Learn Algebra 1: Self-Study Guide & Tips

[biologyboy89]

Hey guys, I have never finished algebra 1 in high school which was around 10 years ago. I want to start myself on a good foundation so I can learn more advanced math. My ultimate goal in the end is to learn meteorology; so I need to start somewhere.

For algebra 1 are you able to list things that I should teach myself before I jump to geometry? Thanks in advanced.

You can find what you're looking for here: https://openstax.org/subjects
If you start from left to right (Pre-algebra, Algebra - Elementary, Algebra - Intermediate etc.) you'll find what's needed. To see a list, you can simply click on the books, which are free to download, and then on "Table of Content".

In the list on the openstax site, geometry isn't listed. A lot of the concepts of geometry are covered in algebra-trigonometry. Older textbooks sometimes called this "Analytic Geometry," which is like geometry but with coordinates.

Thank you so much! This is going to be so much help, now I won't have to go to a bunch of different sources.

Remember that you're always welcome to our homework section of the forums if you're stuck somewhere. Only requirements are to use the (automatically inserted) template and show some effort to help us understand, what the problem is. It's an excellent tutorial for free, and far better to ask for support than to waste too much time on a specific issue or exercise. We like to help you to learn something, although I must admit we do not like to be considered a solution factory.
