In these works Oresme locates points by means of coordinates, somewhat as places are located on a map by means of latitude and longitude. In geographic work this method of location had been used long before by such Greek scholars as Hipparchus, Marinus of Tyre, Ptolemy, and Heron. While there was some revival of interest in conics in the works of such writers as Kepler (1571–1630), it was not until Descartes (Latin, Cartesius, 1596–1650) published his epoch-making little work *La Géométrie*, in 1637, that the fundamental ideas of analytic geometry were laid before the mathematical world. It is true that Fermat (c. 1601–1665), as shown by his correspondence with contemporary scholars, had already conceived the idea that the properties of a curve could be deduced from its equation, but, as in the case of his contributions to the theory of numbers, he published nothing upon the subject, and so the work of Descartes stands as the first to make known the ideas of analytic geometry. Although Descartes had the idea of an analytic geometry for higher dimensions, his work is confined entirely to the plane, and it was left for men like Parent (1700), and especially Clairaut (1731) and Euler (1760), to extend the theory to curves of double curvature and to surfaces.

We know that Menachemus (c. 350 B.C.) may have written upon them, that for a long time they were called Menelaus' trials, that Aristaeus, Euclid (c. 300 B.C.), and Archimedes (c. 250 B.C.) all contributed to the theory, and that Apollonius (c. 225 B.C.) wrote an elaborate treatise on conics. So complete was this work of Apollonius that it seemed to mathematicians for about eighteen hundred years to have exhausted the subject, and very few additional discoveries were made. Most of the propositions given today in elementary treatises on analytic geometry are to be found in the writings of Apollonius, and some idea of coordinates may also be seen in certain passages of his work. The study of conics by ancient and medieval writers was, however, of a purely geometric type; the proofs of the propositions being of the same general nature as the proofs of the propositions in Euclid's celebrated work on geometry.

Nature of Analytic Geometry The chief features of analytic geometry which distinguish it from elementary geometry are its method and its results. The main results will be found as we proceed, but the method of procedure may be indicated briefly at once. This method consists of indicating by algebraic symbols the position of a point, either fixed or in motion, and then applying to these symbols the processes of algebra. Without as yet knowing how this is done, we can at once see that with the aid of all the algebraic processes with which we are familiar we shall have a very powerful method for exploring new domains in geometry, and for making new applications of mathematics to the study of natural phenomena. The idea of considering not merely fixed points, as in elementary geometry, but also points in motion is borrowed from a study of nature. For example, a ball thrown into the air follows a certain curve, and the path of a plane X about its sun is also a curve, although not a circle. # 5. Point on a Map The method by which we indicate the position of a point in a plane is substantially identical with the familiar method employed in map drawing. To state the position of a place on the surface of the earth, we give in degrees the distance of the place east or west of the prime meridian, that is, the longitude of the place; and then we give in degrees the distance of the place north or south of the equator, that is, the latitude of the place. For example, if the curve NGAS represents the prime meridian, a meridian arbitrarily chosen and passing through Greenwich, and if 14° B’ represent the equator, the position of a place P is determined if AB and BP are known. If AB = 70° and BP = 45°, we may say that P is 70° east and 45° north. ``` Image Analysis: **Text Analysis:** - **Image 1:** - **Detected Text:** - The text is an excerpt from a book discussing analytic geometry and mapping methods.

It is recognized that the colleges of this country generally follow one of two plans with respect to analytic geometry. Either they offer a course extending through one semester or they expect students who take the subject to continue its study through a whole year. For this reason the authors have so arranged the work as to allow either of these plans to be adopted. In particular, it will be noted that in each of the chapters on the conic sections questions relating to tangents to the conic are treated in the latter part of the chapter. This arrangement allows for those subjects being omitted for the shorter course if desired. Sections which may be omitted without breaking the sequence of the work, and the omission of which will allow the student to acquire a good working knowledge of the subject in a single half year are as follows: 46–53, 56–62, 121–134, 145–163, 178–197, 225–245, and part or all of the chapters on solid geometry. On the other hand, students who wish that thorough foundation in analytic geometry should proceed to the study of the higher branches of mathematics are urged to complete the entire book, whether required to do so by the course of study or not.

Distance Between Two Points When the coordinates of two points \( P_1 (x_1, y_1) \) and \( P_2 (x_2, y_2) \) are known, the distance \( d \) between the points is easily found. Drawing the coordinates of \( P_1 \) and \( P_2 \) and drawing \( Q_0 P_0 \) perpendicular to \( P_2 \), we have: \[ R_0 = O A_0 - A_1 = z_1 \] \[ Q_{P_2} = A_2 - A_4 = y_2 - y_1 \] And in the right triangle \( R_0 Q_2 \): \[ d^2 = R_0^2 + Q_{P_2}^2 \] Therefore, \[ d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} \] ## 18. Standard Figure The figure here shown is used so frequently that we may consider it as a standard. \( P_1 \) and \( P_2 \) may have any two points in the plane, so that \( A_1 \) and \( A_2 \) may be any two points on the x-axis and y-axis respectively, determined by \( I_y \) and \( I_x \). But in every case, whether \( O \) is to the left of \( A_1 \) and \( A_2 \), or between them, or to their right, \[ A_1 = A_0 + O A_4 - O A_4 = x_1 + z_2 - z_1, \] and similarly \[ B_2 = y_2 - y_1. \] ## 19. Distance in Oblique Coordinates When the axes are not rectangular, it is the custom to designate the angle \( XY \) by \( \theta \). Then, by the law of cosines, we have: \[ d^2 = R^2 + Q^2 - 2RQ \cos(180° - \theta). \] That is, since \( \cos(180° - \theta) = -\cos(\theta) \), \[ d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2 - 2 \cos(\theta)}. \] Image Analysis: ### Image 1 Analysis 1. **Localization and Attribution:** - The page contains a diagram located in the middle of the page, along with text above and below the diagram. 2. **Object Detection and Classification:** - Objects identified: Diagram with axes (labeled X and Y), points (labeled \( A_1, A_2, A_3, B, R \)), and vectors with respective notations. - Key Features: The diagram illustrates geometric principles with lines connecting points and angles. 3. **Text Analysis:** - Text content discusses geometric magnitudes, particularly the distance between two points, standard figures in geometry, and oblique coordinates. - Significance: Provides mathematical formulas and explanations for calculating distances and angles within a given coordinate system. 4. **Diagram and Chart Analysis:** - The diagram supports the text by visually representing the geometric relationships discussed.

Two Fundamental Problems The notion of correspondence between graphs and equations gives rise to two problems of fundamental importance in analytic geometry: 1. Given the equation of a graph, to draw the graph. 2. Given a graph, to find its equation. These problems, with the developments and applications to which they lead, form the subject matter of analytic geometry. A few examples illustrating the first of these problems will now be given, the second problem being reserved for consideration in Chapter III. The word *locus* is often employed in place of the word *graph* above. So also is the word *curve*, which includes the straight line as a special case. ## 12. Nature of the Graph of an Equation In general, an equation in x and y is satisfied by infinitely many pairs of real values of x and y. Each of these pairs of values locates a point on the graph of the equation. The set of all points located by these pairs usually forms, as in the examples on page 8, a curve which contains few or no breaks, or, as we say, a curve which is continuous throughout most or all of its extent. In dealing with graphs of equations in the remainder of this chapter, and again in Chapter III, we shall assume that the graphs are continuous except when the contrary is shown to be the case. The study of the conditions under which the graph of an equation is not continuous, together with related topics, is a matter of considerable importance in the branch of mathematics known as the calculus. In special cases it may happen that the graph of an equation consists of only a limited number of real points. For example, the equation \(x^2 + y^2 = 0\) is satisfied only by \(x = 0, y = 0\), and its graph is a single point, the origin. Image Analysis: **Image Analysis:** 1. **Localization and Attribution:** - Image 1 is the only image present on the page. 2. **Text Analysis:** - The text appears to be an excerpt from a book or document titled "GRAPHS OF EQUATIONS." - Key sections include: - **11.

It mentions the continuity of graphs and the importance of studying conditions under which a graph is not continuous. - Overall, the text outlines fundamental concepts in analytic geometry and the connection between equations and their graphical representations. 3. **Contextual Significance:** - The text likely serves an educational purpose, explaining basic concepts in mathematics related to graphing equations. It contributes to the overall theme of understanding mathematical graphs and their properties. 4. **Perspective and Composition:** - The perspective is straight-on, typical for text pages, which facilitates easy reading. 5. **Color Analysis:** - The image is in grayscale, maintaining a classic appearance typical of book pages, which aids in focusing on the textual content without distractions from color.

Cylinder Parallel to an Axis In plane analytic geometry, the equation \(x^2 + y^2 = r^2\) represents a circle. We shall now investigate the locus in space of a point whose coordinates satisfy the equation \(x^2 + y^2 = r^2\). In the \(xy\) plane, draw the circle with center \(O\) and radius \(r\). The equation of this circle in this plane is \(x^2 + y^2 = r^2\). Let \(P'(x, y)\) be any point on the circle. Through \(P'\), draw a line parallel to the \(x\) axis, and let \(P(x, z)\) be any point on this line. Then the coordinates of \(P\) obviously satisfy the equation \(x^2 + y^2 = r^2\). But the \(x\) and \(y\) of \(P\) are the same as those of \(P'\), and hence the equation \(x^2 + y^2 = r^2\) is true for \(P\) and is also true for every point of the line \(P'\). Further, since \(P'\) is any point on the circle, the equation \(x^2 + y^2 = r^2\) is true for every point of the circular cylinder whose elements are parallel to the \(y\) axis and pass through the circle, and for no other points. Similarly, the equation \(2x^2 + 3y^2 - 18\) represents the cylinder whose elements are parallel to the \(x\) axis and pass through the ellipse \(2x^2 + 3y^2 = 18\) in the \(xy\) plane. In general, then, we see that: Any equation involving only two of the variables \(x, y, z\) represents a surface parallel to the axis of the missing variable and passing through the curve determined by the given equation in the corresponding coordinate plane. As a further example, the equation \(z = 6\) represents the cylinder parallel to the \(z\) axis and passing through the parabolas \(y = 6 - x^2\). The term **cylinder** is used to denote any surface generated by a straight line moving parallel to a fixed straight line. ``` Image Analysis: ### Text Analysis **Text Extraction:** - **General Context:** The text describes cylinder surfaces in analytic geometry, focusing on equations defining cylinders parallel to axes. - **Key Points:** - A circle in plane analytic geometry is represented by the equation \( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 \). - The text describes the set of points forming a cylinder whose coordinates satisfy \( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 \) and how this represents a circle with center (0,0) and radius \( r \). - Details the process of drawing lines parallel to the x and z axes through given points P'(x, y, 0) and P(x, y, z). - Discusses how the equation \( x^2 + y^2 = a^2 \) remains true along the line P’P and for a cylinder with elements parallel to the z-axis passing through the circle. - Introduces another cylinder equation: \( 2x^2 + 3y^2 = 18 \). **Text Significance:** - **Explanation and Examples:** - The passage demonstrates geometric concepts, illustrating how to derive cylindrical shapes from planar circles through algebraic manipulation. ### Diagram and Chart Analysis **Diagram Analysis:** - Features a diagram illustrating a cylinder aligned parallel to the x and z axes.

Locating a Point The method used in map drawing is slightly modified for the purposes of analytical geometry. Instead of taking the prime meridian and the equator as lines of reference, we take any two intersecting straight lines to suit our convenience, these being designated as \( Y'Y \) and \( X'X \), and their point of intersection as \( O \). Then the position of any point \( P \) in the plane is given by the two segments \( OA \) and \( AP \), \( AP \) being parallel to \( Y'Y \). If we choose a convenient unit of measurement for these two segments, the letters \( a \) and \( b \) may be taken to represent the numerical measures of the line segments \( OA \) and \( AP \), or the distances from \( O \) to \( A \) and \( P \) respectively. It is often convenient to draw \( PB \) parallel to \( OA \) and to let \( BP = a \), as here shown. That is, we may locate the point \( P \) by knowing \( OA \) and \( AP \), or \( OA \) and \( OB \), or \( BP \) and \( OB \). ## 7. Convention of Signs As in elementary algebra, we shall consider the segment \( OA \) or the distance \( d \) in the figure next above, as positive when \( P \) is to the right of \( Y'Y \), and as negative when \( P \) is to the left of \( Y'Y \). Similarly, we shall consider the segment \( AP \), or the distance \( s \), as positive when \( P \) is above \( X'X \) and as negative when \( P \) is below \( X'X \). In this figure, \( P \) is determined by \( a \) and \( b \), where \( P \) has coordinates \( (x, y) \) and \( O \) is represented by \( (x_0, y_0) \). The segments \( OA \) and \( AP \) are positive, and \( OB \) and \( BP \) are negative. ### Note Where confusion is likely to arise, the language will conform to the conditions which develop.

In plane analysis as well as in synthetic geometry, for example, we consider only those magnitudes which are called to mind by the words *length,* *angle,* and *area.* In this chapter we shall study the problem of calculating the magnitudes of plane geometry as it arises in our coordinate system. 16. **Directed Segments of a Line.** Segments measured in opposite directions along a line are said to be positive for one direction and negative for the other. For example, \( AB \) and \( BA \) denote the same segment measured in opposite directions. That is, \( AB = -BA \) and \( BA = -AB \), \( AB \) and \( BA \) being each the negative of the other. The coordinates of a point are considered as directed segments, the abscissas being always measured from the \( x \) axis toward the point, and the ordinates from the \( y \) axis toward the point. That is, in this figure, \( A_0 \) is \( O_0 \), but \( A_0 = -x_1 \). Similarly, \( x_1 = O_1 \), but \( O_1 = -y_1 \). Also, \( A_n \) is not \( x_n \) for \( n = 0, 1, \ldots, \) but \( A_n + O_n = -x_n + y_1 - y_n \). These conventions, of little significance in elementary geometry, are of greatest importance in our subsequent work.

Lines and Equations Having learned how to locate points by means of coordinates, we now turn to the treatment of lines, straight or curved. For our present purposes, a line may conveniently be regarded as made up of all the points which lie upon it. Consider, for example, the bisector \( AB \) of the angle \( XOT \). Here we see that the coordinates of every point \( P(x, y) \) on the line \( AB \) are equal; that is, in every case \( x = y \). And conversely, if \( x = y \), the point \( (x, y) \) is on \( AB \). Hence the equation \( x = y \) is true for all points on \( AB \), and for no other points. We therefore say that the equation \( y = x \) is the equation of the line \( AB \) and refer to \( AB \) as the *graph*, or *locus*, of the equation \( y = x \). Again, consider the circle with center at the origin and with radius \( r \). If the point \( P(x, y) \) moves along the circle, \( x \) and \( y \) change; but since \( x \) and \( y \) are the sides of a right triangle with hypotenuse \( r \), it follows that \( x^2 + y^2 = r^2 \). This equation is true for all points on the circle and for no others; it is the equation of this particular circle, and the circle is the graph of the equation \( x^2 + y^2 = r^2 \). We therefore see that a certain straight line and a certain circle, which are geometric, are represented algebraically in our system of coordinates by the equations \( y = x \) and \( x^2 + y^2 = r^2 \) respectively. Whenever an equation is satisfied by the coordinates of all points of a certain line, and by the coordinates of no other points, the line is called the *graph* of the equation, and the equation is called the *equation of the graph*.

Inclination of a Line When a straight line crosses the \(y\) axis, several angles are formed. The positive angle to the right of the line and above the \(x\) axis is called the **angle of inclination** of the line, or simply the **inclination**, and is designated by \( \alpha \). In the above figure, the inclination of \(l\) is \( \alpha \) if \( \beta \) is less than \( r \). In analytic geometry, an angle is positive if it is determined by the counterclockwise turning of a line about its vertex. The inclination of a line has numerous important applications to the study of physics, involving such questions as related to force, work, and velocity. If the coordinates of two points are given, the inclination of the line determined by these points is easily found. For example, in the case of \( P(1, 3) \) and \( Q(3, 7) \), we find that: \[ \tan \alpha = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{7 - 3}{3 - 1} = \frac{4}{2} = 2 \quad \text{where } \tan \alpha = 2. \] ## 21. Slope of a Line The tangent of the angle of inclination is called the **slope of the line** and is denoted by \( m \). The formula for the slope of the line through two points \( (x_1, y_1) \) and \( (x_2, y_2) \) is \[ m = \tan \alpha = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}. \] That is, \( m \) is equal to the difference between the ordinates divided by the corresponding difference between the abscissas. - If \( a \) is between \( 0^\circ \) and \( 90^\circ \), \( m \) is positive. - If \( a \) is between \( 90^\circ \) and \( 180^\circ \), \( m \) is negative. - If \( a = 0^\circ \), \( m = \tan 0^\circ = 0 \), and the line is parallel to \( XX' \). - If \( a = 90^\circ \), the line is perpendicular to \( XX' \).
