We conclude our study by proving, with mathematical rigour as always, Kepler's Third Law - the square of the period of a planet moving around its elliptical orbit is proportional to the cube of its semimajor axis of that orbit.

We shall prove Kepler's First Law: A planet revolves in an elliptical orbit with the sun at one of its focus. This simple looking law actually turns out to be the hardest one to derive.

Keplers Laws - Preliminaries pt1
Before we prove Kepler's Laws, we need to formulate some preliminaries namely setting up the coordinate axis. Check out www.gaussianmath.com for a more indepth explanation and more calculus-related content.
