In the textbook there are icons directing you to various support pages. The
icon is used to reference pages that
demonstrate aspects of using the TI graphing calculators. The
icon
is used to reference extra material on a topic. And the icon
is used to
reference further explanations of some point in the text.
Below each icon in the text there is a sequenced name for the specific
web page being referenced. Those icons and sequenced names are listed below
as hyperlinks to the desired pages.
