In their Elementary Course in Analytic Geometry the authors of this book endeavored to prepare a text suitable for the general student, as well as for the student who desires a definite scientific training, including preparation for advanced mathematical study. The success of theE lementary Course has been demonstrated by its adoption and continued use in many of the leading colleges and scientific schools. Since the publication of that text, however, there has been a growing desire for a somewhat briefer book preserving the same rigor of proofs and careful analysis, but omitting or shortening the less important details. The Brief Course in Analytic Geometry is prepared to meet this demand. The chief features of theE lementary Course which have won such universal approval have been included. These are: (1) An extended introduction to the method of the analytic geometry, showing the value of the interpretation of the negative number by means of coordinates, the relation of the locus to the equation, and the use of the equation to find and demonstrate properties of the locus. (2) Introduction of the demonstration of general theorems by numerical examples, in order to make clear the method used before bringing in the added difficulties of literal notation and general proofs. (3) The use of some intrinsic properties of curves, to emphasize further the fact that the coordinates are a tool, an intermediate device, not essential to the properties which are studied by their aid.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book establishes an accessible theoretical framework for understanding the foundations of diverse algebraic and geometric concepts in analytic geometry. The framework is built from first principles, demonstrating the interconnections between coordinate systems, locus of equations, and the properties of conic sections. The author deftly guides readers through crucial concepts such as direction, distance, area, and tangents, proving theorems with the help of straightforward explanations, detailed diagrams, and real-life examples. By approaching the subject from a historical perspective, the author provides a glimpse into the development of analytic geometry, highlighting its profound significance. The work culminates in an exploration of applications to areas such as calculus and further mathematics, showcasing the practical relevance of analytic geometry. This book is an invaluable resource for students, educators, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the subject's foundational concepts and their wider implications in mathematics and beyond. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
