This book, first published in 2004, is a genuine introduction to
the geometry of lines and conics in the Euclidean plane. Lines and
circles provide the starting point, with the classical invariants
of general conics introduced at an early stage, yielding a broad
subdivision into types, a prelude to the congruence classification.
A recurring theme is the way in which lines intersect conics. From
single lines one proceeds to parallel pencils, leading to midpoint
loci, axes and asymptotic directions. Likewise, intersections with
general pencils of lines lead to the central concepts of tangent,
normal, pole and polar. The treatment is example based and self
contained, assuming only a basic grounding in linear algebra. With
numerous illustrations and several hundred worked examples and
exercises, this book is ideal for use with undergraduate courses in
mathematics, or for postgraduates in the engineering and physical
sciences.
