Excerpt from Logarithmic and Trigonometric Tables
To divide by 100, from the exponent of 10 opposite subtract the exponent of 10 opposite 100; 6 2 z 4; and look for the number Opposite 104, i.e. Similarly 001 since 3 6 9. TO find the 4th power of 100, multiply the exponent of 10 opposite 100 by 4: 4 x 2 8, and look for the number opposite 108, Likewise 000000001, since 3 x 3) 9. To find the cube root of divide the exponent of 10 opposite by 3, 9 +3 3, and look for the number opposite 103.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the world of logarithmic and trigonometric tables, essential tools for mathematical calculations in the early 20th century. Predating the era of electronic calculators and computers, these tables provided mathematicians, scientists, engineers, and navigators with a means to perform complex computations efficiently and accurately. The author meticulously explains the principles and applications of logarithms, demonstrating their role in simplifying multiplication, division, raising to powers, and extracting roots. The book offers a comprehensive guide to understanding and utilizing logarithmic tables, including detailed instructions for interpolation, a technique used to estimate values not explicitly listed in the tables. Furthermore, the book explores the realm of trigonometry, providing tables of trigonometric functions and their logarithms. Clear explanations and examples guide readers through the process of calculating sines, cosines, tangents, and cotangents, enabling them to solve problems involving angles and triangles. This work stands as a testament to the ingenuity of mathematicians in developing methods for computation before the advent of modern technology. Its insights into the historical development of mathematical tools offer valuable perspective on the evolution of scientific and engineering practices. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9780282993771_0
