Biographical Information Occupation, Sphere of Activity Apollonius of Perga ( c262-c190 BC ) - whose life story remains a mystery as it is not even certain he was born in Perga, and his life dates are rough estimates - is remembered for his only major work still extant, Conics , an 8-book work (of which the first 7 survive) which summarises the knowledge of the time on the subject, and goes on to introduce numerous major new ideas. The terms "ellipse", "parabola" and "hyperbola" to describe conical sections, were coined in this work, and new definitions of the shapes were found. Until then, they had been defined as sections, perpendicular to the base, of different types of cone. Apollonius redefined them all as sections, at different angles, of the same cone. He credited Conon of Samos ( c280-c220 BC ), a collaborator of Archimedes of Syracuse ( c287-212 BC ), and Euclid of Alexandria ( c325-c265 BC ) with the original work on conical sections that inspired this work. Of his other books, all, with the exception of

Apollonius, of Perga (c. 245-c. 190 BC) Greek mathematician, called 'the Great Geometer'. In his work Conica/The Conics he showed that a plane intersecting a cone will generate an ellipse, a parabola, or a hyperbola, depending on the angle of intersection. In astronomy, he used a system of circles called epicycles and deferents to explain the motion of the planets; this system, as refined by Ptolemy , was used until the Renaissance. It is thought that Apollonius may have studied at the school established by Euclid at Alexandria, especially since much of his work was built on Euclidean foundations. Of his eight-volume treatise Conica, seven volumes are extant. The first four books consisted of an introduction and a statement of the state of mathematics provided by his predecessors. In the last four volumes Apollonius put forth his own important work on conic sections, the foundation of much of the geometry still used today in astronomy, ballistic science, and rocketry

The Works of Apollonius Apollonius was born around 260B.C. and was known as ‘The Great Geometer’. He was born in Perga which is now Antalya, Turkey. During Apollonius’ time Perga was the center of culture and the place of worship for Queen Artemis, a nature goddess. When he was a young man Apollonius departed to Alexandria where he studied under the followers of Euclid and later taught there. Apollonius' greatest works were his works written down in the eight books of Conics. Books one to four form an elementary introduction to the basic properties of conics. Most of the results of books 1-4 were known to Euclid, Aristaeus and some others. Though books five to seven are highly original, eight was lost over time, in these Apollonius discusses normals to conics and explains how many can be drawn from a single point. He also gives propositions determining the center of a curvature which led to his Cartesian equation of the evolute. Heath, a fellow geometer of Apollonius, quoted on some of the later works of Conics. Heath is the most remarkable of the extant Books.

CTK Exchange Front Page Movie shortcuts Personal info ... Recommend this site Apollonius Problem: What is it? A Mathematical Droodle Explanation Alexander Bogomolny Apollonious Problem Draw a circle tangent to three given circles. The problem was posed and solved by one of the greatest Greek geometers, Apollonius of Perga (ca. 260-170 B.C.) However, his original solution that was included in his treatise De Tactionibus Tradionally, the problem covers several special cases. For example, one or more of the given circles may degenerate into a point. (If all 3 do, the problem is then reduced to constructing the circumcircle of a given triangle. Note that if the three points are collinear , the circumcircle degenerates into a straight line. If the given circles touch at the same point, there is an infinitude of solutions. Quite often, especially in Inversive Geometry , straight lines are also considered circles - circles with infinite radius and center at infinity. In particular, if the three sides lines of a triangle are looked at as such circles of infinite radius, the incircle and the three excircles of the triangle are solutions to the Apollonius' problem. The applet above eschews those cases. However, even if we only concentrate on the circles proper, the problem may not have a solution. This happens, for example, if the given circles are
