Broad appeal to undergraduate teachers, students, and engineers; Concise
descriptions of properties of basic planar curves from different perspectives;
useful handbook for software engineers; A special chapter---"Geometry on the
Web"---will further enhance the usefulness of this book as an informal tutorial
resource.; Good mathematical notation, descriptions of properties of lines and
curves, and the illustration of geometric concepts facilitate the design of
computer graphics tools and computer animation.; Video game designers, for
example, will find a clear discussion and illustration of hard-to-understand
trajectory design concepts.; Good supplementary text for geometry courses at the
undergraduate and advanced high school levels
