Synopsis
Excerpt from A Treatise on Spherical Trigonometry, Vol. 1: With Applications to Spherical Geometry and Numerous Examples
Part I. Treats of the subject as far as the solution of Triangles, inclusive. In the text will be found all the Propositions usually contained in treatises on the subject, besides such other Theorems as appeared to us to be of special importance on account of their utility.
The Volume is replete with examples (in many cases worked out), the arrangement of which has been the sub j ect of our special attention: our aim throughout being to place them in immediate connexion with the subject matter of which they are illustrative.

A Treatise on Spherical Trigonometry, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: NEW. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricacies of spherical trigonometry, a branch of mathematics concerned with the relationships between the sides and angles of triangles on the surface of a sphere. Unlike plane trigonometry, which deals with triangles on a flat surface, spherical trigonometry finds its applications in fields like astronomy, navigation, and geography, where calculations on the Earth's curved surface are essential. The author meticulously guides readers through the fundamental concepts, starting with the properties of spheres and circles, then progressing to spherical triangles and their unique characteristics. With clear explanations and numerous worked-out examples, the book covers key topics such as the solution of right-angled and oblique-angled triangles, Napier's and Delambre's analogies, and Legendre's theorem. By bridging the gap between plane and spherical trigonometry, the book offers valuable insights into the historical development of these mathematical concepts. The inclusion of geometrical proofs alongside the more common analytical approaches provides a deeper understanding of the subject matter. Ultimately, this comprehensive treatise equips readers with the knowledge and tools to tackle complex problems involving spherical triangles, contributing to a greater appreciation of this vital mathematical discipline and its practical applications in understanding our world.
