Suggestions for Analytic Geometry books

In summary, analytic geometry is a branch of mathematics that uses algebra and geometry to study geometric shapes and their properties. It is important to study because it develops critical thinking and problem-solving skills and provides a foundation for advanced mathematics. Some recommended books for learning analytic geometry are "Analytic Geometry" by Gordon Fuller and Dalton Tarwater, "Calculus with Analytic Geometry" by Howard Anton, and "Elementary Differential Geometry" by Andrew Pressley. Online resources for learning analytic geometry include Khan Academy, MIT OpenCourseWare, and Coursera, as well as online forums and communities. To improve understanding, it is recommended to practice solving problems, seek guidance from a tutor or study group, and use visual aids such as graphs and diagrams.

Mathematics for the Nonmathematician, as I've said before. It's basically an entire high-school curriculum in one book.
