Hi Vin4evr!
There is a homesite for aviation calculations such as distance to descent, rate of descent and plenty more.

I have found the golden book for learning to fly. Rod Machado's Private Pilot Handbook has all the important calculations explained in terms even I can understand. I have read it cover to cover twice and refer to it whenever a new challenge arises.

Hope this helps!
