Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is the first volume in a systematic treatise on elementary geometry, written in a methodical order and comprehensive in its range. It includes both the synthetic and analytic methods of the ancients and the moderns. The author has endeavored to adapt the work to the wants of the young, and to the existing condition of instruction. In executing this book, the author has given much attention to classification, endeavoring to arrange the subjects in a natural order. For instance, in the first section, little or no artifice is employed, and the simplest algebra is sparingly introduced. The second section contains the first doctrine of algebra, as being convenient for reference to those already acquainted with the science, and indispensable to others, who, by taking up these principles as required, may wish to proceed in the same class. The elementary properties of the ellipse and parabola, being as simple as those of the circle, and as useful in the study of natural philosophy and astronomy, are also introduced. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
