Sinopsis

Excerpt from Elementary Synthetic Geometry: Of the Point, Line and Circle in the Plane

Parts IV. And V. Contain a synthetic treatment of the theories of the mean centre, of inverse figures, of pole and polar, of harmonic division, etc., as applied to the line and circle 3 and it is believed that a student who becomes acquainted with these geometric extensions in this their simpler form will be greatly assisted in the wider discussion of them in analytical conics. Through out the whole work modern terminology and modern processes have been used with the greatestifreedom.

Reseña del editor

Author sexperience in teaching Geometry to Junior Classes in the University for a series of years. It is not an edition of Euclid sE lements, and has in fact little relation to that celebrated ancient work except in the subject matter. The work differs also from the majority of modern treatises on Geometry in several respects. The point, the line, and the curve lying in a common plane are taken as the geometric elements of Plane Geometry, and any one of these or any combination of them is defined as a geometric plane figure. Thus a triangle is not the three-cornered portion of the plane inclosed within its sides, but the combination of the three points and three lines forming what are usually termed its vertices and its sides and sides produced.
