I'm teaching a pre-calculus class soon. What are some non-retard textbooks? Preferably, cheap.

pre-calculus is an easy enough subject that i could put together a class without external resources, including exercises.
unfortunately every text treats things like trig as an exercise in memorization, like values on the unit circle, which is utterly useless in practice.
