PREFACE

This text book on TRIGONOMETRY with Problems & Solutions for JEE Main and Advanced is meant for aspirants preparing
for the entrance examination of different technical institutions, especially NIT/IIT/BITSAT/IISc. In writing this book I
have drawn heavily from my long teaching experience at National Level Institutes. After many years of teaching I have
realised the need of designing a book that will help the readers to build their base, improve their level of mathematical
concepts and enjoy the subject.
This book is designed keeping in view the new pattern of questions asked in JEE Main and Advanced Exams. It has
eight chapters. Each chapter has a large number of worked out problems and exercise based problems as given below:
Level – I: Questions based on Fundamentals
Level – II: Mixed Problems (Objective Type Questions)
Level – III: Problems for JEE Advanced Exam
(0.......9): Integer type Questions
Passages: Comprehensive link passages
Matching: Match Matrix
Reasoning: Assertion and Reasoning

become easy.
So please don’t jump to exercise problems before you go through the Concept Booster and the objectives. Once you are
arranged in a manner that they gradually
require advanced thinking.
tackle any type
of problem easily and skilfully.
My special thanks goes to Mr. M.P. Singh (IISc. Bangalore), Mr. Manoj Kumar (IIT, Delhi), Mr. Nazre Hussain (B.
Tech.), Dr. Syed Kashan Ali (MBBS) and Mr. Shahid Iqbal, who have helped, inspired and motivated me to accomplish
this task. As a matter of fact, teaching being the best learning process, I must thank all my students who inspired me most
for writing this book.
I would like to convey my affectionate thanks to my wife, who helped me immensely and my children who bore with
patience my neglect during the period I remained devoted to this book.
I also convey my sincere thanks to Mr Biswajit of McGraw Hill Education for publishing this book in such a beautiful
format.
and to
all my learned teachers— Mr. Swapan Halder, Mr. Jadunandan Mishra, Mr. Mahadev Roy and Mr. Dilip Bhattacharya,
who instilled the value of quality teaching in me.
I have tried my best to keep this book error-free. I shall be grateful to the readers for their constructive suggestions
toward the improvement of the book.
