About this Item

Print on Demand. This book provides an introduction to analytic geometry and calculus, beginning with basic concepts that were first developed in the 17th century. The author starts with defining direction and distance on a straight line before using these ideas to establish a system of rectangular coordinates. This establishes a framework for representing and graphing equations, the focus of analytic geometry. This book then uses this framework to explore concepts such as slope, graphing functions, and the derivative. It concludes by applying these concepts to integral calculus and its applications including the calculation of area and volume. The topics covered in this book form the foundation of modern calculus, concepts which have been used in every branch of science and mathematics to solve problems, and which continue to be used by students and researchers today. 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.

About this title

Synopsis

Master the core ideas of analytic geometry and calculus with clear, structured explanations.

This text offers a thorough introduction to topics like definite integrals, area under curves, infinite series, and convergence tests, all presented with practical problems and step-by-step reasoning. It helps you build a solid foundation for solving real-world math challenges.

The material is organized to help you see how calculus connects to geometry. You’ll find definitions, theorems, and worked examples that illustrate how to analyze shapes, compute areas, and handle infinite processes. The approach emphasizes the limits of sums, the role of infinitesimals, and the conditions under which key methods work.

• Learn how to set up and evaluate definite integrals and understand the meaning of an integral as a limit of sums
• Explore convergence, divergence, and the main tests used to analyze infinite series
• See how area problems are solved in Cartesian and parametric forms, with practical Examples
• Build problem-solving skills with worked exercises and patterns you can apply to new situations

Ideal for readers of introductory and intermediate calculus and analytic geometry, this edition supports clear understanding and steady progress through essential techniques.
