Excerpt from A Practical Text-Book on Plane and Spherical Trigonometry
Tms work is intended as a practical text-book on Plane and Spherical Trigonometry, adapted to the needs of High Schools and Colleges. While considerable space has been devoted to the development of the theoretical portions of the subject, the practical applica tions of the formula have not been neglected, and in the chapters on the. Solution of Triangles will be found a carefully selected assortment of exercises and ex amples, arranged With the view of giving the student a thorough drill in numerical computation.
Chapter II. Is devoted to the functions of acute angles, the definitions being given by aid of the right triangle; a number of numerical and other exercises serve to give familiarity With them, and the usual fundamental relations are deduced. In Chapter III. The principles of the rectangular co - ordinates of a point in a plane are employed to give general definitions of the functions, applicable to angles of any magnitude, positive or negative, and the fundamental relations are proved to hold universally.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book makes sense of plane and spherical trigonometry for contemporary students, grounded in ancient techniques. While the author maintains a practical approach, focusing on solving trigonometry problems, he never loses sight of the theoretical underpinnings that give character to these subjects. Indeed, the author's own relatable approach to the material breathes new life into ancient problems that secondary or college-level students might find refreshingly engaging. The scope of this book spans the spectrum of both plane and spherical trigonometry, with particular care taken to present the functions of angles not just as ratios but also as the coordinates of points on the unit circle. Topics in this comprehensive book also include logarithms and their use in solving numerical equations, as well as an exposition of De Moivre's Theorem.
