About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from Elements of Analytical Geometry: Embracing the Equations of the Point, the Straight Line, the Conic Sections, and Surfaces of the First and Second Order

For about sixteen years the subject of Analytical Geome try has made a part of the course of mathematics pursued at the Military Academy, and the methods which have been adopted in the present work, are those which have been taught with the greatest success. The admirable treatises of Biot and Bourdon have been freely consulted, and many of the exammes in the seventh book have been selected from the former work. The system of Biot has also been somewhat followed. It has been the intention to furnish a useful text-book, and no attempt has been made to depart from clear and satisfactory methods adopted by others, merely for the purpose of seeming to be original.
