I Resource help for co-ordinate geometry

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around finding free resources for studying coordinate geometry, emphasizing a desire for materials that explain the logic behind concepts from the basics to a college level. A suggested resource is the OpenStax Algebra and Trigonometry textbook, particularly chapters focused on foundational topics. However, the original poster seeks more targeted content on graphs, equations, and their derivations, starting from fundamental concepts like straight lines. Additional resources from OpenStax are mentioned, but the poster expresses concern about the breadth of prerequisites in those materials. Overall, the thread highlights the need for accessible, focused learning tools in coordinate geometry.

TL;DR
Can someone provide me with some free resources (classes, books, notes anything) for co-ordinator geometry?
Can someone provide me with some free resources (classes, books, notes, sites anything) for co-ordinator geometry?
I want to study it from the basics while understanding the logic of every step and build upto start of collage level.
Note ; non free resources are welcome too, but free resources would be preferred
Thankyou in advance

Have you thought about something like this (esp. chapters 7,9ff.)?

While this is usefull, this isn't exactly what I'm looking for. I need something that's more focused on the graphs and equations of graphs, how they're derived, the calculations, applications etc. Starting from the basics like stright lines and dots and all.

That would be the chapters at the beginning, e.g. chapter 2 and 3.
Other books are here: https://openstax.org/subjects/math

I don't think you can get more basic than these.

What I meant wasn't that it's too advanced. It's like stretched out over a whole bunch of pre requisites and side topics which makes it harder to cover during a short amount of time. Well it's fine, I'll look it up.
Thanks for the link, looks very usefull.
 
I have been insisting to my statistics students that for probabilities, the rule is the number of significant figures is the number of digits past the leading zeros or leading nines. For example to give 4 significant figures for a probability: 0.000001234 and 0.99999991234 are the correct number of decimal places. That way the complementary probability can also be given to the same significant figures ( 0.999998766 and 0.00000008766 respectively). More generally if you have a value that...
