Analytic Geometry: An Elementary Course (1898)

Analytic Geometry: An Elementary Course is a book written by John Henry Tanner and originally published in 1898. The book is a comprehensive guide to the principles and techniques of analytic geometry, a branch of mathematics that deals with the study of geometric shapes using algebraic equations. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a specific topic related to analytic geometry. The first chapter introduces the basic concepts of coordinate geometry, including the Cartesian plane and the distance formula. The subsequent chapters cover topics such as the equation of a line, the equation of a circle, conic sections, and higher-degree curves.Throughout the book, Tanner provides clear explanations of the mathematical concepts and techniques, and includes numerous examples and exercises to help readers practice their skills. The book is intended for students of mathematics and science who are interested in learning about analytic geometry, as well as for anyone who wants to improve their understanding of this important field of mathematics. Overall, Analytic Geometry: An Elementary Course is a valuable resource for anyone looking to learn about the principles and techniques of analytic geometry, and is a classic text in the field of mathematics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
