Σελίδα 81 - C' (89) (90) (91) (92) (93) 112. In any plane triangle, the sum of any two sides is to their difference as the tangent of half the sum of the opposite angles is to the tangent of half their difference.
Σελίδα 52 - The VERSED SINE of an arc is that part of the diameter which is between the sine and the arc. Thus, BA is the versed sine of the arc AG.
Σελίδα 43 - A cone is a solid figure described by the revolution of a right angled triangle about one of the sides containing the right angle, which side remains fixed.
Σελίδα 98 - For, by art. 14, the decimal part of the logarithm of any number is the same, as that of the number multiplied into 10, 100, &c.
Σελίδα 131 - In any plane triangle, the sum of any two sides is to their difference as the tangent of half the sum of the opposite angles is to the tangent of half their difference. By Theorem II. we have a : b : : sin. A : sin. B.
Σελίδα 38 - To the sum of the areas of the two ends add four times the area of a section parallel to and equally distant from both ends, and this last sum multiplied by | of the height will give the solidity.
Σελίδα 14 - To find then the logarithm of a vulgar fraction, subtract the logarithm of the denominator from that of the numerator. The difference will be the logarithm of the fraciion.
Σελίδα 100 - ... term. (Art. 52.) But it is more convenient in practice to begin by subtracting the first term from one of the others. If four quantities are proportional, the quotient of the first divided by the second, is equal to the quotient of the third divided by the fourth.
Σελίδα 49 - The circumference of every circle is supposed to be divided into 360 equal parts, called degrees ; each degree into 60 equal parts, called minutes ; and each minute into 60 equal parts, called seconds.
Σελίδα 41 - TO ONE OF THE SIDES. Or, MULTIPLY THE CUBE OF ONE OF THE EDGES, BY THE SOLIDITY OF A SIMILAR SOLID WHOSE EDGES ARE 1...
