Excerpt from Analytic Geometry
While the book is to be regarded as a text-book of plane analytic geometry, the concluding chapter is devoted to solid geometry. Only the barest outline of some of the fundamental principles of this subject is included, enough to enable the student, when he studies calculus, and wishes to apply its principles to problems involving solids and surfaces, to feel that he is not on entirely new ground.

Excerpt from Analytic Geometry
In adding another text-book on analytic geometry to the large list of such books now available, the authors feel that a statement of the reasons for this one is desirable. In compiling the work they have endeavored to keep constantly in view the needs of that large class of students in our colleges and technical schools who, though in a way sympathetic toward mathematical study, are yet lacking in that quick appreciation of the mathematical point of view which is a characteristic of the so-called mathematical mind. The assimilation of new ideas, or even of new combinations and applications of ideas already familiar, in which the study of analytic geometry especially abounds, is not easy even for the trained mind, and for the student approaching the subject for the first time is the source of most of his difficulties. The attempt here is to make this approach by easy gradations so that the student may not lose himself on the way, but may feel sure of his ground as he advances. To try to gain this end by the lack of rigorous demonstration would be to lose sight of an important object of such study, which, rightly viewed, is to assist the student to an acquaintance with correct principles of mathematical reasoning and the accompanying scientific attitude of mind. The aim has been therefore to preserve mathematical rigor throughout.
As to details, much of the book necessarily follows well established lines of procedure. The experienced teacher will find, however, here and there, some departure from these lines which it is hoped will be approved.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book teaches the basics of analytical geometry, the mathematical system of defining and representing points on a plane using coordinates. Conceived by Renà Descartes in the 17th century, analytics continues to form the foundation of modern mathematics and its numerous applications in the sciences and engineering disciplines. Analytical geometry provides a framework for exploring two-dimensional relationships using equations, a powerful tool for describing the physical world that is utilized across diverse fields, from architecture to robotics and beyond. This book provides an accessible introduction to the subject for these varied audiences and will be an invaluable and versatile resource for students, educators, and practitioners alike.
