The two-part treatment begins with discussions of the coordinates of points on a line, coordinates of points in a plane, and the coordinates of points in space. \u003cbr\u003ePart 2 examines geometry as an aid to calculation and the necessity and peculiarities of four-dimensional space. Written for systematic study, it features a helpful series of \"road signs\" in the margins, alerting students to passages requiring particular attention, and an abundance of ingenious problems -- with solutions, answers, and hints -- promote habits of independent work\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45117589061783,"sku":"9780486425658","price":623.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780486425658.webp?v=1767273298","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-method-of-coordinates-9780486425658","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
