Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, initially published in 1845, is a treatise on conic sections, a class of geometric shapes. The author delineates the mathematical principles used to determine the position of a point on a plane and then uses those principles to develop the equations for straight lines and circles. The author discusses the conditions under which straight lines will be parallel or perpendicular to each other. The author continues by presenting a method for transforming coordinates and then applying that method to rewrite equations for circles relative to different axes, including oblique axes. The author concludes by proving an important theorem about equations of the second order, which is helpful in classifying conic sections. The proof of the theorem illustrates the power of a precise mathematical approach that allows a general truth to be deduced from seemingly specific information, making this a valuable tool for mathematicians and those in related fields.
