    The author proves in this paper published in the section devoted to the secondary school mathematics some theorems connected with the angle under which a conic section can be viewed from a point in the same plane: For instance, under which angle we see a given conic section from the given point, or what is set of points from which it is possible to see the given conic section under the given angle, etc. As a byproduct he also reproves the theorem about the power of a point to the conic section (but not to mention \textit{E. Laguerre}'s theorem [Oeuvres de Laguerre. II: Géométrie. Paris: Gauthier-Villars (1905; JFM 36.0014.07), p. 20 ]).
