Abstract: This programed booklet is designed for the engineering student who is familiar with integral calculus and electrical networks. The first portion of this booklet is concerned with sinusoids, their properties, and their mathematical and graphical representations. The second portion is concerned with phasors and the mathematical relationship between phasors and sinusoids. Opportunity is provided for the student (1) to see how the use of phasors can simplify the work of adding or subtracting sinusoids of the same frequency, and (2) to see how different forms of the same expression emphasize different characteristics of the function.
