Math Triumphs is an intensive intervention resource for students who are two or more years below grade level. The series provides step-by-step intervention, vocabulary support, and data-driven decision making to help students succeed in high school mathematics. Designed to support students needing the most intensive intervention, Math Triumphs: Foundations for Algebra 2 helps build mastery of the foundational skills from prior grades that are prerequisites to the current grade level. Uniquely scaffolded practice problems provide support by breaking down each skill into the simplest understanding. Ongoing assessments throughout Math Triumphs help teachers identify student needs.

The need for improved mathematics education at the high school and college levels has never been more apparent than in the 1990's. As early as the 1960's, I.M. Gelfand and his colleagues in the USSR thought hard about this same question and developed a style for presenting basic mathematics in a clear and simple form that engaged the curiosity and intellectual interest of thousands of high school and college students. These same ideas, this development, are available in the following books to any student who is willing to read, to be stimulated, and to learn.
This market-leading text continues to provide students and instructors with sound, consistently structured explanations of the mathematical concepts. Designed for a two-term course, the new Eighth Edition retains the features that have made Algebra and Trigonometry a complete solution for both students and instructors: interesting applications, cutting-edge design, and innovative technology combined with an abundance of carefully written exercises.
