Om författaren
Pergaetus Apollonius was one of the greatest mathematicians of antiquity. Commonly called "the great geometer," he was educated at Alexandria, Egypt, under the successors of Euclid. Apollonius presented the first systematic treatment of conic sections and coined the terms parabola, ellipse, and visa mer hyperbola. Seven of the eight books of his Conics survive, four in Greek and three in Arabic. Apollonius also made important contributions to astronomy by applying his knowledge of geometry to theories about planetary motions. Apollonois died about 220 B.C.
