I gotta say, math is interesting but hard, I just took Algebra I (soon to take Geometry) I want to learn some good ol' math but the wierd equations like y – y1 = m(x – x1) which that is point slope form which you guys know. Either way, school's out so here's the real question. What good books you guys recommend for geometry because most likely our school is not gonna give us books to study. Yep that's right, technology sucks ass, e-books. I don't want that, fuck that, rainy day, bill due for internet. I want to buy one. I did that for Algebra I and I got it for 3.99 bucks from Goodwill. But yeah, any books I can bu that are worth getting?

TL;DR: Algebra sucked, schools out, geometry around the corner, wanna get books, gibe some recommendations on what books i got to get.

There's only one book on geometry.

I'd say start out with some nice Algebraic Geometry.

It's so ridiculously hard, even the guy who came up with most of it ragequitted after a good while to become a sheep farmer in rural france.

Youre right man, I can't be here, I gotta stop jerking off to this shit.

the real question is, are there any "bad" pre calculus books?

Also try Khan Academy if you do have access to the internet. Mofo turned precalc into ABC's.

Quite possibly the greatest mathematician in history. He doesn't get enough respect around here.

I don't want to sound like I wouldn't suck his dick,
but for one he didn't "came up with most of it", (the subject is much older than him and rephrased it and build important access points and generalization),
and secondly he gets enough recognition here,
at least when considering that 4chan users average age is 22 or below.
