I need to brush up on math for my current project:

and found the book series:

- _Make:Geometry_ https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58059196-make

- _Make:Trigonometry_ https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/123127774-make

- _Make:Calculus_ https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61739368-make

a helpful review and extension of my slipshod math education (remember how Feynman once critiqued some math books, esp. calling out one for using made-up associations of colors and star temperatures? guess which one the school system I attended was using...).

Next step is I need to work with conic sections and after that Bézier curves/surfaces --- could you suggest texts on those subjects?
