Σελίδα 44 - ... the square of the second. In the second case, we have (a — &)2 = a2 — 2 ab + b2. (2) That is, the square of the difference of two quantities is equal to the square of the first, minus twice the product of the two, plus the square of the second.
Σελίδα 140 - Subtract the square of this figure from the left-hand period, and to the remainder annex the next period for a dividend.
Σελίδα 40 - Divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor, and write the result as the first term of the quotient. Multiply the whole divisor by the first term of the quotient, and subtract the product from the dividend.
Σελίδα 210 - It is evident that the terms of a proportion may undergo any change which will not destroy the equality of the ratios ; or which will leave the product of the means equal to the product of the extremes.
Σελίδα 216 - RULE. — Divide the difference of the extremes by the number of terms less one, and the quotient will be the common difference. EXAMPLES. 2. A certain school consists of 19 teachers and scholars, whose ages form an arithmetical series ; the youngest is 3 years old, and the oldest 39.
