This respected text makes extensive use of applications and features items such as historical vignettes to make the material useful and interesting. The text is written for the one-term analytic geometry course, often taught in sequence with college algebra, and is designed for students with a reasonably sound background in algebra, geometry, and trigonometry.

An Introduction to Analytic Geometry and Calculus covers the basic concepts of analytic geometry and the elementary operations of calculus. This book is composed of 14 chapters and begins with an overview of the fundamental relations of the coordinate system. The next chapters deal with the fundamentals of straight line, nonlinear equations and graphs, functions and limits, and derivatives. These topics are followed by a discussion of some applications of previously covered mathematical subjects. This text also considers the fundamentals of the integrals, trigonometric functions, exponential and logarithm functions, and methods of integration. The final chapters look into the concepts of parametric equations, polar coordinates, and infinite series. This book will prove useful to mathematicians and undergraduate and graduate mathematics students.

This book, first published in 2004, is an example based and self contained introduction to Euclidean geometry with numerous examples and exercises.

Concise text covers basics of solid analytic geometry and provides ample material for a one-semester course. Additional chapters on spherical coordinates and projective geometry suitable for longer courses or supplementary study. 1949 edition.
