Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book sets forth the theories and principles of conic sections, or plane curves, generated by intersecting a cone with a plane. It originates in the writings of ancient mathematicians such as Apollonius of Perga and Pappus of Alexandria, whose ideas serve as the foundation of this book. The author presents the subject in a clear and systematic manner, beginning with the definitions and properties of conic sections and progressing to more advanced topics such as tangents, normals, and curvature. The book places particular emphasis on the parabola, discussing its geometric properties, equations, and applications in physics and engineering. The author combines rigorous mathematical analysis with practical examples and exercises, making this book an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and mathematicians interested in the study of conic sections.
