Paperback. Zustand: 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.
