Analytic geometry, also known as coordinate geometry, analytical geometry, or Cartesian geometry, is the study of geometry using a coordinate system and the principles of algebra and analysis. This contrasts with the synthetic approach of Euclidean geometry, which treats certain geometric notions as primitive, and uses deductive reasoning based on axioms and theorems to derive truth. Analytic geometry is the foundation of most modern fields of geometry, including algebraic geometry, differential geometry, and discrete and computational geometry, and is widely used in physics and engineering.

Usually the Cartesian coordinate system is applied to manipulate equations for planes, straight lines, and squares, often in two and sometimes in three dimensions of measurement. Geometrically, one studies the Euclidean plane (2 dimensions) and Euclidean space (3 dimensions). As taught in school books, analytic geometry can be explained more simply: it is concerned with defining geometrical shapes in a numerical way and extracting numerical information from that representation. The numerical output, however, might also be a vector or a shape. That the algebra of the real numbers can be employed to yield results about the linear continuum of geometry relies on the Cantor-Dedekind axiom.

Calculus with analytical geometry word problem help?
Q. A ladder 26ft long leans against a vertical wall. if the lower end is being moved away from the wall at the rate of 5ft/sec, how fast is the ladder sliding down the building when the lower end of the ladder is 10ft from the wall? I'm working on a study guide and I have no idea how to even approach this. I don't have to have the answer, just if anyone could get me started in the right direction to solve it? Thanks so much.

A. Because the wall is vertical, the Pythagorean Theorem applies. So Let x= the distance the bottom of the ladder is from the wall, and y= the distance up the wall the ladder goes. Because the ladder is moving, those distances change and have to be represented by variables. The length of the ladder is constant, so the hypotenuse = 26ft. This is a related rate problem. So you need an equation that relates the variables. x^2 +y^2= 26^2 Now take the derivative of both sides with respect to time. 2xdx/dt+2ydy/dt=0 Now go back to the Theorem of Pythagoras find find y when x=10 You will find y=24. dx/dt=5ft/sec, that was given. Now substitute in the derivative 2(10)(5)+2(24)dy/dt=9 and dy/dt=-100/48 ft/sec. The negative sign in the… [cont.]

Analytical geometry, finding the focus of the parabola?
Q. I think I figured there is 2 formulas to find the focus of a parabola. One is h + p , k and the other is h, k + p how do I know when to use which one, ahhh help. thanks

A. For a parabola with vertex (h, k) the focus is: For a vertical parabola: (h, k + p) For a horizontal parabola (h + p, k)
