On the Application of a New Analytic Method to the Theory of Curves and Curved Surfaces (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Application of a New Analytic Method to the Theory of Curves and Curved Surfaces
I fear that brevity and compression have been but too much studied in the following essay, but the necessity of comprising the whole matter in a small compass, and the pressure of other avocations, will plead, I hope, a sufficient apology.
From the same cause I have been obliged to omit altogether subjects which might have been with propriety introduced, for example, the general theory of shadows and have only touched upon others which would require perhaps further development.
Among other applications of the method, I trust that to the theory of reciprocal polars will be found simple and satisfactory.

On the Application of a New Analytic Method to the Theory of Curves and Curved
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is for anyone working with algebraic analysis to explore geometry. The author presents a new method for determining the envelope of a right line or plane that touches a curve or curved surface, a crucial element in geometry that had previously required complex higher-level analysis. This innovative method, called tangential coordinates, is introduced, explained, and illustrated with a variety of examples. The author shows how to use this method to find the locus of a point, trace the envelope of lines, and solve other problems in the geometry of curves and surfaces with far greater ease than was previously possible. By exploring the practical applications of tangential coordinates, this book will prove a valuable resource for anyone engaging with problems in analytic geometry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282595838_0
