This is the SOLUTIONS MANUAL ONLY to The Art of Problem Solving, Volume 1. The Art of Problem Solving, Volume 1, is the classic problem solving textbook used by many successful MATHCOUNTS programs, and have been an important building block for students who, like the authors, performed well enough on the American Mathematics Contest series to qualify for the Math Olympiad Summer Program which trains students for the United States International Math Olympiad team. Volume 1 is appropriate for students just beginning in math contests. MATHCOUNTS and novice high school students particularly have found it invaluable. Although the Art of Problem Solving is widely used by students preparing for mathematics competitions, the book is not just a collection of tricks. The emphasis on learning and understanding methods rather than memorizing formulas enables students to solve large classes of problems beyond those presented in the book. Speaking of problems, the Art of Problem Solving, Volume 1, contains over 500 examples and exercises culled from such contests as MATHCOUNTS, the Mandelbrot Competition, the AMC tests, and ARML. Full solutions (not just answers!) are available for all the problems in the solution manual. Review: Cheated - I was cheated! It said solutions but it was the text book and not solutions Review: Very useful - This whole series is excellent. I am a retired high school math teacher and currently teach math as an adjunct. The material in all these books is presented in a clear, mathematically rigorous way. I became acquainted with the series in my work with a mathematically gifted student. Working through this and other texts in the series has improved my own problem solving ability.

be prepared
Got this to give myself a challenge along with the workbook, I like the way it presented the material and the examples were excellent as a senior citizen I really have to thank my teachers who taught me to not be afraid of math from adding and subtracting to calculus. Take the challenge and test yourself.

This is the Answer Key to "The Art of Problem Solving: The Basics." They show work but sometimes lack explanations so you will have to figure out what exactly happened from one step to the next. It is definitely handy if you write on separate piece of paper and compare your work with theirs. I agree with other comments that there are times when they take the harder/longer route to solve one problem.
