The second part of the book covers formulas, rules, and figures related to Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Analytical Geometry, Mathematics of Finance, Calculus, and Statistics.
The third part of the book covers formulas, definitions, and figures related to Mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Temperature and Heat, Electricity and Magnetism, Light, and Waves and Sound.
Students and professionals alike will find this book a very effective learning tool and reference. I am grateful to my son Sasha for valuable contributions in the preparation of this book.

Units are labels that are used to distinguish one type of measurable quantity from other types. Length, mass, and time are distinctly different physical quantities, and therefore have different unit names, such as meters, kilograms and seconds. We use several systems of units, including the metric (SI) units, the English (or US customary units), and a number of others, which are of mainly historical interest.
This part of the book contains the following:
1. International System of Units
2. Metric Units of Measurement
3. U.S. Units of Measurement
4. Tables of Equivalents
The International System of Units, abbreviated as SI, is the modernized version of the metric system established by international agreement.
