RESEARCHES ON CURVES of the SECOND ORDER

By George Whitehead Hearn

In this small volume the reader will find no fantastical modes of applying Algebra to Geometry. The old Cartesian or co-ordinate system is the basis of the whole method-and notwithstanding this, the author is satisfied that the reader will find much originality in his performance, and flatters himself that he has done something to amuse, if not to instruct, Mathematicians. Though the work is not intended as an elementary one, but rather as supplementary to existing treatises on conic sections, any intelligent student who has digested Euclid, and the usual mode of applying Algebra to Geom-etry, will meet but little difficulty in the following pages.
