Böcker i Mathematical World-serien

Suitable for both students and teachers who love mathematics and want to study its various branches beyond the limits of school curriculum. This book contains vast theoretical and problem material in main areas of what authors consider to be 'extracurricular mathematics'.

Presents the translation from the Japanese textbook for the grade 10 course, 'Basic Mathematics'. This book covers algebra (including quadratic functions, equations, and inequalities), trigonometric functions, and plane coordinate geometry.

Deals with the properties of conics (plane curves of second degree) that can be formulated and proved using only elementary geometry. Starting with the well-known optical properties of conics, this book moves to less trivial results, both classical and contemporary. It demonstrates the advantage of purely geometric methods of studying conics.
