Page 32 - Find the limit of the position of a point, the ratio of whose distances from two fixed points is less than a given ratio.
Page 3 - fundamental assumption: On every straight line there is one and only one ideal or infinitely distant point. This point makes the line continuous from any one point on it to any other point on it in either direction. Through a given point there can be drawn one and only one line parallel to a given line. This parallel intersects the given line in the ideal or infinitely distant point.
Page 61 - ... intersect the tan- the vertices of a triangle cirgents at the opposite vertices cumscribed to a conic to the in points of one straight line. points of contact of the opposite sides intersect in one point. 62. Pascal's theorem yields itself at once to the construction of a conic of which there are given five points, or four points and the tangent at one of them, or three points and the tangents at two of them. In the case of five points being given, if these are A, B, C, D, E, and they are joined...
Page 86 - If a triangle is inscribed in a conic, any line conjugate to one side meets the other two sides in conjugate points.
Page 100 - Eliminating t we obtain .(8) which is the equation of an ellipse referred to a pair of conjugate diameters. Moreover, since any point on the path may be regarded as the starting point, the formula (7) shews that the velocity at any point P varies as the length of the semidiameter (OD, say) conjugate to OP (cf. Art. 21, Ex. 2). In other words, the hodograph is similar to the locus of D, ie to the elliptic...
