Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book's main subject is the theory of Apollonius Pergaeus, a prominent figure of the Hellenistic period, and an author of classics on conic sections and plane geometry. The text focuses on the application of Apollonius' theories to the "inclination of straight lines", which gave rise to a very interesting geometrical problem, the solution of which is intricately dissected throughout the chapters of the book. Like many classical mathematicians, Apollonius laid the groundwork for many geometrical methods of later times, including those of Renà Descartes. The exploration of Apollonius' method of intersecting chords leads to ideas that would be later developed into the calculus. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
