Summary edit

Description
English: Apollonius of Perga introduced the name "parabola" after he derived the connection of each point on a parabola with a square and rectangle of equal areas. Here we take a "school parabola" y=x2 and illustrate the connection mentioned above. Coordinate axes are shown only for convenience. See the book Ot N'yutona k Kepleru by D.V.Anosov, p. 36 (ISBN 5940572294)
Русский: Аполлоний Пергский ввёл в употребление слово «парабола» после того, как он выявил связь каждой её точки с квадратом и прямоугольником равной площади. Здесь мы берём в качестве примера «школьную параболу» y=x2 и иллюстрируем эту связь. Координатные оси показаны только для наглядности. См. книгу Д.В.Аносова «От Ньютона к Кеплеру», М.:МЦНМО, 2006, стр.36
