Excerpt from The Elements of Plane Analytic Geometry: A Text-Ncluding Numerous Examples and Applications, and Especially Designed The design of this book is to present the elements of Analytic Geometry in a simple form, for the use of beginners. With this object in view, I have tried to make the demonstrations thorough, sometimes at the expense of brevity, in order that the student may never feel that the fundamental truths have been in part assumed. Therefore it may often seem best to the teacher to present special cases of the theorems as preparation for the general demonstrations of the book. The text has been interspersed with a large number of examples and applications to familiar theorems of Geometry, often accompanied with the answers and hints for the solution, to stimulate the interest of the student and to teach him early how to work for himself. For the same purpose the chapter on Loci has been introduced. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
