LESSON 22.

A and B in partnership bought a grindstone which contained 3 feet in diameter; after making an allowance for for the eye, 4 inches by 3, the parties agreed that A should grind off one half first; how many inches of the diameter must A wear off for his part?

Answer, 10 inches 5 seconds 7 thirds.

First consider we have a diameter given to find the area. See rule 4, under note 2, lesson 16.

Area including the eye, 7.0686 ||will give a new area.

Here 6.9853 is an area given to find the diameter. When found, we will call it "a new diameter." See Rule under

Now we have a new diameter given to form another which will make a circle half as large in area for B's part. See Rule 2, above example 2, under Lesson 16.

prove this operation, find the area of B's part by Rule 4, under Note 2, in Lesson 16.

B's part must be equal to half the new area after the eye was deducted.

from New-York 4000 miles south, then east 6000 miles; how far will she be from New-York

on a direct course, and what will be the course back?

Ans. the ship will be 7211 miles from New York, and the course back will be N. 56° 19′ W.
