The System of Calculating Diameter, Circumference, Area, and Squaring the Circle is a book written by James Morton in 1881. The book provides a comprehensive guide to the mathematical calculations related to circles, including their diameter, circumference, and area. It also explores the concept of squaring the circle, which involves constructing a square with the same area as a given circle using only a compass and straightedge.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different aspect of circle geometry. The first chapter introduces the basic concepts of circles and their properties, while the second chapter focuses on the calculation of the diameter and circumference of a circle. The third chapter explores the area of a circle, including formulas for calculating the area using both radius and diameter.The fourth chapter is dedicated to the topic of squaring the circle. Morton explains the history and significance of this problem, which has intrigued mathematicians for centuries. He then provides a step-by-step guide to constructing a square with the same area as a given circle, using only a compass and straightedge.Throughout the book, Morton provides clear explanations and numerous examples to help readers understand the mathematical concepts involved. The book is written in a straightforward style that is accessible to both students and professionals in the field of mathematics. Overall, The System of Calculating Diameter, Circumference, Area, and Squaring the Circle is a valuable resource for anyone interested in circle geometry and mathematical calculations.Together With Interest And Miscellaneous Tables, And Other Information.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
