What reading level is An Elementary Treatise On Analytical Geometry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


y — y" = a {x — x") ; it is required to determine a.
For this purpose, let the tangent be regarded as a secant, and let us determine the co-ordinates of the points of inter- section. These co-ordinates must satisfy the three preceding equations, since the points to which they belong are common to the line and circle. Combining these equations, by sub- tracting the second from the first, we have y^ — y"^ -\' ^^ - — ^"^ — 0, or {y — y") {y + y") + {x -^ x") {x + x") = o.
Putting for y, its value
...y" + « (a; — x") drawn from the equation of the Hne, we get \2ay" + «2 (^ __ ^//) _|_ ^ + x"\ (x — x") = o.
This equation will give the two values of a; corresponding to the two points of intersection. The co-ordinates of one point are obtained by putting s — x" = 0, which, gives X =^ a;", and y — y" ; and those of the second point are made known by the equation 2aij" ■\- a" {x — x") ■\- x ■\- x" = o, when a is given.
If now we suppose the points of intersection to approach each other, the secant line will become a tangent, when those points coincide ; but this supposition makes X = x"y and y = y" ; Chap.
