The book is divided into two parts, the first of which covers the fundamental principles of the subject, including the Cartesian coordinate system, equations of lines and circles, and transformations of coordinates. The second part of the book focuses on more advanced topics, such as conic sections, higher-order curves, and the theory of poles and polars. The book is written in a clear and concise style, with numerous examples and exercises to help students master the material. It is aimed at undergraduate students of mathematics, physics, and engineering, as well as anyone interested in the subject of analytical geometry. The book is a valuable resource for those studying for exams or seeking a deeper understanding of the subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
