Applied Math Foundations for Technical Work

Designed as a broad foundation in applied mathematics, this guide moves from everyday number skills—fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios, and unit conversions—into introductory algebra, equations, graphs, measurement, geometry, and trigonometry. Its organizing principle is practical use: mathematical concepts are connected to examples from technical occupations and technologies, including automotive work, allied health, welding, plumbing, machine tools, carpentry, and HVAC. The coverage makes it a single-volume reference for learners who need to build core computational and problem-solving tools alongside job-oriented applications.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Engineering technology students and technicians strengthening foundational math skills
  • Learners in vocational and trade programs such as HVAC, welding, plumbing, or automotive work
  • Students seeking applied examples alongside introductory algebra, geometry, and trigonometry

Book overview

Fundamentals of Technical Mathematics introduces key, applied mathematics for engineering technologists and technicians. Through a simple, engaging approach, the book reviews basic mathematics, including whole numbers, fractions, mixed numbers, decimals, percentages, ratios, and proportions.

The book covers conversions to different units of measure (standard and/or metric) and other topics as required by specific businesses and industries, providing a go-to resource on the topic. Building on these foundations, it then explores concepts in arithmetic, introductory algebra, equations, inequalities, and modeling, graphs and functions, measurement, geometry, and trigonometry, all the while supporting these concepts with practical applications in a variety of technical and career vocations, including automotive, allied health, welding, plumbing, machine tool, carpentry, auto mechanics, HVAC, and many other fields. In addition, the book provides practical examples from a vast number of technologies.
