Excerpt from The Elements of Spherical Trigonometry, for the Use of Schools, Etc
IN the compilation of this work, the most esteemed writers, both English and foreign, have been consulted, but those most used are De Pourcy and Legendre. Napier's Circular Parts have been treated in a manner somewhat different to most modern writers. The terms conjunct and adjunct, used by Kelly and others, are here retained, as they appear to be more conformable to the practical views of Napier himself. There are many other parts connected with Spherics that might be treated of, but which are not adapted to a Rudi mentary Treatise like the present; those, however, who wish to see all the higher departments fully developed, must consult the writings of that distinguished mathematician, Professor Davies, of the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricacies of spherical trigonometry, a branch of mathematics crucial to various fields such as astronomy, navigation, and engineering. It begins by establishing a solid foundation in the fundamentals of spherical triangles, including their definitions, relationships between sides and angles, and Napier's analogies. The author then proceeds to explore the three main types of spherical triangles: right-angled, quadrantal, and oblique-angled triangles. Each type is thoroughly analyzed, with detailed explanations of how to solve for unknown sides and angles using a variety of methods, including the fundamental formulae, Napier's circular parts, and logarithmic calculations. The book strikes a balance between theoretical exposition and practical application, providing numerous solved examples and exercises to reinforce the concepts. Through a comprehensive and accessible approach, this book serves as a valuable resource for students, practitioners, and anyone seeking to enhance their understanding of spherical trigonometry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
