Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from The Elements of Plane Trigonometry

IN this treatise on the Elements of Plane Trigonometry the subject is divided into three parts, dealing respectively with arithmetical, real algebraical, and complex, quantity. Such an arrangement appears to be a natural one, and has the advantage of introducing the new names and formulae that belong to the subject before the student encounters the difficulty of the application of signs to denote the sense and direction of lines. Part I. Is further simplified by the postponement of the treatment of the circular measurement of angles. For many practical purposes, in surveying and in the applica tion of trigonometry to elementary mechanics, the short introduction to the subject comprised in Part I. Will be found useful.

The immediate substitution of the real for the tabular logarithm of the trigonometrical ratios was recommended by Professor De Morgan, and seems likely to be generally adopted as the simpler method in teaching and the more expeditious and more accurate one in working.
