Numerous strategies and techniques are presented that can be used to solve intriguing and challenging problems of the type often found in competitions.  The author uses a friendly, non-intimidating approach to emphasize connections between different fields of mathematics and often proposes several different ways to attack the same problem.  Topics covered include functions and their properties, polynomials, trigonometric and transcendental equations and inequalities, optimization, differential equations, nonlinear systems, and word problems.   Over 360 problems are included with hints, answers, and detailed solutions.  Methods of Solving Nonstandard Problems will interest high school and college students, whether they are preparing for a math competition or looking to improve their mathematical skills, as well as anyone who enjoys an intellectual challenge and has a special love for mathematics.  Teachers and college professors will be able to use it as an extra resource in the classroom to augment a conventional course of instruction in order to stimulate abstract thinking and inspire original thought.AlgebraMathematical analysisAnalysis (Mathematics)GeometryNumber theoryMathematics—Study and teaching Algebrahttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M11000Analysishttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M12007Geometryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M21006Number Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M25001Mathematics Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O25000Algebra.Mathematical analysis.Analysis (Mathematics).Geometry.Number theory.Mathematics—Study and teaching .Algebra.Analysis.Geometry.Number Theory.Mathematics Education.515Grigorieva Ellinaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut755612MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300256103321Methods of solving nonstandard problems1522696UNINA
