the angle at the centre of the earth between a line to anypoint on it and a line to a point on the equator being 23°-27 ? 18. If two points on a straight line, distant respectivelya and b, from its extremity, be kept on the Y-axis and X-axis, respectively, as the line is moved around, the… … similar to that for the circle and for the parabola,equation (B) Taking w-y-y / xT-a/ (x — x*). no Analytical Geometry. Let the points (V, /), (x, y) be on the ellipse, ABAB,say m and n, then they must satisfy the equationa2 y2 +b2x2 = a2 b2. That is, a2yn-\-b2x2 = a2 b2 (i) and a2y2+b2x2 = a2 b2…
